Stuck in park and reverse
So I haven't even bought this yet because I'm waiting for my truck to sell (don't to but I want the extra money to work on it). I've taken so much of a liking to this car that I've started to work on it. Current and only non drivable major issue- car will not shift past reserve. A4LD possible linkage issue?

Scorpio a4ld linkage is pretty simple, there is just a rod that connects the lever on the trans to the shifter in the car. Its purely mechanical.

Broken transmission mount with bad engine mounts can jam things out of wack....
A man meets another addict and says "oh yeah, I have a Merkur too!" and the other man says "no way!!!!! ............how many?"

Re: Stuck in park and reverse
Sorry for the late reply.... I feel like an idiot, in my automatic car I have to button to shift from park so with the scorpio you have to push down to get it to work.
