Skippy213 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 95 legacy l with 200000 sat for a couple days with not running or starting. When I went to move it the car started fine, but it was difficult to shift out of park to reverse and same for all the other gears. After it was running a while the issue went away, any ideas on what is bad or what's going bad on the car? If I drive it every day I do not notice the issue. The car is a 2.2 L with AT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skippy213 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Checked it and it was rusty. Put penetrating oil and it feels much smoother, I think that will do the trick. Thank you so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Replace the cable as it is just going to happen again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
