1997 Subaru Impreza Transmission Mystery?


Recommended Posts

I have a '97 Impreza Sport 2.2 5-speed that I just love!!!  It was running and shifting fantastic.  There was no grinding or slipping noises in the tranny or clutch at all.   

 

Well...here's the mystery...I was coasting down a hill in 4th gear when my Bulldog (yep...my dog) kicked it out of gear and into neutral.  (Shouldn't have been a problem...right?)

 

Somehow, without any warning, I LOST ALL GEARS and the car goes nowhere!!!  The shifter moves through all the gears, but does not connect or make ANY noise at all.

 

My mechanic (30 years experience) is baffled as well as my other Subee friends.  Has this ever happened to anyone else???  Is there some kind of linking pin or shifting rod that could have snapped???  Is there anything else we can check without tearing the tranny out???

 

THANK YOU for your time and input as I really can't afford to replace the tranny especially if it could be something else.  :huh:
