Thread: I just lost Drive in all gears...very afraid. And LTFT fixed.

Assuming that you do not have a heavy leak from the transmission and there is sufficient oil then it sounds like the transmission pump has died... = transmission rebuild could be worth an extensive internet search to see what the "experts" advise. There is a lot of info on zf4hp22/24 transmissions. Very disappointing.

Sounds like many 1000s of $...

If your park stop still holds in low and high range then it's the trans that's dead. If park doesn't hold then it's the transfer case. I remember reading on here about a P38 stuck in the bush with a stripped spline on the viscous drive, ended up being fixed out in the bush and driven out. Apparently relatively easy to do without removing anything major.

Edit: here it is: urgent help needed- RR broken up the bush.

UPDATE

Started her this morning and had a little movement in drive...garage is slight uphill so into low range 1st and managed to get her in under her own steam...after a minute though she is revving in as though in N no matter what gear. In Park she holds.

What am I looking at here?? Neither prop turning when in drive on idle.

I've suffered the "Stripped output shaft spline" syndrome ... The sign was a grinding noise with the auto in D (Drive) accompanied with no movement.

I just got a win by replacing the rear amp and getting sound again...needed.

I confess I was just rolling back a little when I put her into Drive...but so slow surely wouldn't strip output shaft? I am on rangerovers.net too and about to check trans fluid as suggested starting point.

Sorry to hear of your woes on the gearbox front. I have limited knowledge of Autos apart from fluid and filter changes. I recall someone before having a suspect pump and it was suggested to remove the cooler return line, run the engine for a short period and see if there is oil pumping out. I am sure you know the fluid level is checked with the motor running.
If in the slim chance you get to suspect the gearbox ECU, I have a recently acquired spare from a 2001 car I could loan out
Mike90rr knows his stuff, I remember him losing all drive and subsequently diagnosing and replacing the output shaft.

Actually no, I checked the level with the motor off and a liter came out on me...just as well I was already in the pink. My 02 doesn't have a return feed I think?
