That is a broken hardpart in the tranny. I think it is the reaction sun shell

Re: auto trans problem

If paying for the repair yeah as the tranny has to come out and be largely disassembled.

I think there are some other possible causes but this is the most likely.

Re: auto trans problem

Does it still have all forward gears? A broken sun shell will cause no reverse, 2nd and 4th. If it has everything forward, it's most likely the reverse input clutches or low reverse clutches. Does it still have manual low?
