started my car last nite left it running for 5mins or so ,as i pulled off my driveway and put the gear in to drive it felt like it was pulling off in 3rd so i stopped the car and left it a further 5mins to warm up abit more it then pulled of ok until i got to the first island. after pulling away at the island in 1st it wouldnt change up gears .got a further 500yards and i could feel the car holding back so i stopped again.had a look round the vehicle for leaks found nothing so i started off again but i couldnt move the car in any gear or neutral (great ,theres nothing like being stuck on the side of a busy road in the dark).anyway after waiting 20mins or so the autobox freed up and i managed to get the car home and put it on my driveway..today i went out to my car and it wont move or rev up(gutted) .......wish id bought a manual version.....at least ive a nice project to start now and a good job its my second car:headvswal.....i will be looking for parts for a full manual conversion in the next few weeks or so :smash:

how long till someone says you shouldnt leave the car to warm up its bad for it? lol i know how you feel about the autobox though iv only got 1st and 2nd gear cant wait to get it changed

You shouldn't leave the car idling to warm it up, it's bad for the engine...
