Q: reverse gear
Transmission works fine in all gear but reverse. Most of the time when shift reverse. .If I park the car with front down hill. Car will go forward. I can not feel it engaged like D , 1, 2.( engage will have a feel of card venerating) If add gas it may let the engine spin to 2000 or even more. Suddenly the reverse gear will engage and car will back up. If can parked with front uphill, the reverse will work ok. Does the shifting cable or solenoid need replace or transmission need rebuilt? The check engine light did not on.
