    Default my box will only shift 1st and 2nd

    I have had a uprated box fitted to my holden maloo vortech supercharged
    with a maf less tune and a higher stall
    was driving today normally and all the sudden it will not engage 3rd gear
    has it broken or has it go to safe mode
    thanks steve

    bringing up a slightly old thread. my old man's vu has the same problem, but on 2 different gearbox's.

    Im going out shortly to see if there any faults and to see if efilive can make it shift into r3rd or 4th, both times the car has only been driven sedatly along.

    not much at this stage. the box that's in it now slams into drive,rev out of park. so box is pretty much fubar'd. seems to start in 2nd gear now aswell.

    my old man is just waiting on the original box to come back from auto rebuilder.
