Hi,
Looking for some advice.
I have a 2011 L200 2.5 diesel auto doing 165,000km.
Serviced every 10 weeks (8,000-10,000km)
This morning I started up and drove into POS from Arima without any problems.
When I started the truck to leave POS, put it into reverse not problem. Put it into Drive and it moved for about 5 meters and dropped out of gear and was just reving.
I put it into Neutral and back to Drive.. same thing.. it would engage for a second and then drop out of gear and the D would disappear from the dash.
Put it into 2 and it would drive normal.. pushed it back into D and nothing.
Did that a few times and no difference.
I drove for a while (about 2 mins) in 2 and then pushed it back to D and it worked.
I managed to drive to San Fernando without any problems.
When I started in San Fernando to head back north, it did the same thing.. drove for about 30 seconds in 2 and then back to D and it worked again.
Drove up to St. Joseph without any problems.
Transmission fluid looks ok. There are no noises or any strange sounds.
Any ideas? or any recommendations on where I can take it to be checked out properly?
Thanks.
