Need suggestions... stuck in 4th gear
So I was getting on 169 and couldnt get out of 4th and could not get any other gears... I got off the highway and limped it home 10 miles in 4th, not very fun.
Im gonna try adding some fluid in the morning, any other suggestions? I can get in neutral now, but its either that or 4th
my shifter handle is also really hot

Re: Need suggestions... stuck in 4th gear
I think we didnt fill it with enough fluid when we changed it... yesterday morning I got it to finally go in and out of gears after some "force" and now runs ok, but all I did was get it into the garage.
Going to fill it with some more fluid and hope for the best, leonard said I might have overheated the bearings and hopefully i was lucky and didnt cause too much damage.
Luckily I have the SRT to drive right now!

Seems to be fine now. I'll monitor it for a while, but think I got lucky!
