Omega General Help / automaticgearbox issue, no first gear

« on: 01 April 2012, 20:05:11 »

I have a 2000 omega 2.5td. it has no first gear but will start in third with the snow button on then i can take it off aftter around 30mph and it will go to 4th and also drop to 2nd. Is ther any way of getting it to start in second all the time instead of first?

where abouts is the gear selector. I also noticed on my way home from work. if i get it going in D with the snow button on, i can turn the snow button off after around 25mph and the gearbox runs aas normal through the gears. problem only occurs again when i stop.

when in 1,2,3 or D it just revs as in Neutral. The odd time it will start to move in D but very rarely. Will go into gear with snow button turned on then starts to run normal after a while stuck in 3rd

Just spoke to a mechanic on the phone, he reckons the gearbox is in limp mode. Does that sound right

the gearbox was perfect before I washed the engine bay. there is 230000 miles on th car and probably the same gearbox. It starts off in 3rd with the snow button on. Drives for a while in third with snow button on then starts working fine. goes through 2,3,4 no probelm. kick doen works fine. Onlyu when I stop it goes back to the same issue. i have to put it in D with the snow button on again to get going. Sounds like the controller for the gerabox is a bit funny.

I gave the engine bay of me 2000 Omega 2.5TD a clean yesterday with a power hose. I think water got in somewhere it shouldnt have. The rev counter stopped working but has since come back. The car wont drive in 1,2,3 or D. It will drive in reverse and in D if I press he winter button. I drove it this morning in D with winter on and it stayed in 3rd for about 3 miles ten ran as normal up and down the gears no problem.But when I stop i goes back to no drive in 1,2,3 or D. Anybode got any ideas?
