Grretings : My 940 recently developed an anoying problem. The transmission acts as if it is in neutral. If I start the car and place the car in drive all seems fine. When I drive forward and stop ( a couple of times) the trans goes in neutral. If I turn the ignition off and restart the engine every this is fine until I repeat the above. This problem is repeat able. Can this be an electrical problem? Thanks, Jim G

First things to check - trans fluid level and colour

Jim, As the transmission had any other symptoms prior to this and did this start suddenly, if you leave it in drive after it goes to nuetral do you feel it try to reengage?, There are no electrical connections that operate the transmission, be sure the fluid is checked with the engine running and is at the hot or cold level .
