Stuck in reverse, help!

gingerbeemer · Jul 31, 2012

Hi all,
Whilst driving my R reg Disco 1 V8, today, I tried to reverse off the drive and now the bloody things stuck in reverse gear! Wont budge!
Gear shift wont move, plunger seems fine and there's been no odd noises coming from the box or anything.
Any ideas??

Thanks

R380 auto I believe.
Mr AA man thinks its a siezed selector cable??
Possible?
If so, how easy (or hard) is it to replace?

So it's a manual gearbox then?
