Tintop prob, Mondeo Auto, reverse is AWOL
52 plate 2.0 TDCi, reverse has stopped working.
There's the usual "clunk" as it engages and the idle drops slightly but nothing
happens whe you accelerate. Apart from the revs rising. All forward grears ok.
Any ideas O wise ones ?

So do you think the gear is physically engaging, but maybe a sensor or something disagrees and won't let you move?

Ford have used a few different autoboxes in the Mondeo over the years including Jatco, but the first place to start is to check the fluid level
following the correct procedure for the gearbox type.

I had a scorpio a good few years ago with the same problem, turned out the box was knackered, caused by the gearbox oil cooler getting blocked and
overheating the box which made a bearing used when selecting reverse drop out of its housing.... probably completly different to the mondeo but my
experience with auto boxes has always been an expensive one when they start doing strange things !!. this bloke knows his stuff though,
www.automatictransmissions-uk.com would be worth giving him a bell, he was able to diagnose a fault on my xc90 over the phone to the point of saying
sell it before it gets worse .
