Hey Guys,
Twice now I've had an odd experience in my TR6 with A type OD transmission.
I've been driving down a neighborhood street and come to a stop and put the car
into reverse to back into a parking spot or a driveway or something.
When I first start to move backwards, it seems like the drive train is slipping
for a half second or so before it catches and puts the power to the wheels.
It feels and sounds exactly like it would if you were driving on snow.
As a matter of fact, the first time it happened, I had just washed the car and
was backing out of the driveway.
I figured had spun the tire on the wet pavement. I thought it must have been
a pretty slick surface.
This weekend though . . . it was warm tires on dry pavement. . . definitely not
the tires spinning.
Any ideas as to the problem and its severity?
