Recently decided to undertake a rebuild of my wagon with 220k miles. The only thing I didn't fix was the shifter bushings, which have been rattlin for the past year. In the past 3 weeks I have replaced my exhaust manifold gaskets, head gasket, timing cover gasket, sparkplugs, valve seals, thermostat, sls air accumulators, radiator & hoses, air and oil filters. I've also redone the interior electrical and fixed all the issues inside. No small undertaking. Had the car exactly how I wanted it..... Then....
Today, as I was backing out of my parking spot, I shifted from R to D. I heard a heavy mechanical "cachunk" noise which I assume was the transmission blowing. The engine disengaged, and the accelerator had no affect on the car.
Now, I can put the car in park and it keeps rolling.
I put the car in drive and hear a metallic clicking type of noise when I depress the accelerator, but no movement
I put the car in reverse and there is also no affect.
What can I check to diagnose? Could it be the linkage and how can I check?? Thanks!
