Hello, Can anyone help? I have a Subura Legacy and when I put it into park, the car wont hold it rolls back. Gearbox was recon in 2010 only done 16000 since but out of warranty. Please advise?

 

Have you checked the fluid levels on the gearbox?

Hi ya. Yes, it has dropped a little.

 

Did topping up the fluid sort out the problem?

 

Good possibility that the Parking Pawl return spring has broken/come adrift inside the gearbox.
The extension housing on the back of the transmission has to come off to gain access to the Pawl locking lever and spring.

Hello, So the gearbox doesn't have to come out then to replace the spring? That would be good. Would this cause it being awkward to engage Park. Thank you for you help.
