problem #1

Nov 242006

S-TYPE 6-cyl

  • 30,000 miles
After parking car on an incline, parking would not release shifter. The vehicle had to be pushed forward to relieve pressure, but the shifter cable was damaged any way. Parking brake must be engaged to help relieve pressure. Since, faulty servo or hydraulic pump made 5th gear inoperable while driving on the interstate. This seems to be a recurring problem with this transmission. Also, two window regulators have been replaced and another just broke.
