  Evening all,
  1993/94 500 with recalcitrant reverse gear.
  Goes forward just fine but when selecting reverse takes a number of seconds before take up and then provides about 2% power - not even managing to climb a slight incline. 
  Agent (who serviced it 5K ago) says gearbox must come out.
  Any alternatives???
   
  Cheers 
  Gordon 

  New Zealand
