Pontiac Montana 2007 - Gear won't engage in drive
Asked by murphy1969 Jan 13, 2016 at 08:40 PM about the 2007 Pontiac Montana SV6 Base Minivan
Question type: Maintenance & Repair
I have a 2007 Pontiac Montana and all of a sudden the gears won't engage in drive position. However if I shift the gears to 1 then 2 then 3 the drive the van runs so long as the van is moving at a decent speed. As soon as the speed drops the gear disengages and I have to move the gear to 1,2,3, drive again. Notes I just had my transmission fluid changed not more that2 weeks ago.

Check the fluid level. They may not have topped it off or there may be a fluid leak.

Thank you for your reply. Just checked the fluid level last night and its in between min and max. When moving the gears it just feels like its in neutral.
