Have a read of This page (http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/aboxfilters.htm). The oil level is critical so follow the refill procedure exactly and also make sure the wiring is ok. ;)

Master Simmo, thanks for that page but a Quick one pls. If the transmission fluid is over filled due to a faulty dipstick, can that be the cause while it. Won,t shift or change?????????

Yes it could be. The correct level is very important and that is why you have to follow the procedure in the article.

Could be a thousand things................

More info please...............

Exactly what car year / model / engine size

Does it change 1 -2 then nothing or simply stay in one, has it got reverse, does it have engine braking in 1, does the speedo work, what seal did you replace, how far was it driven with oil leaking etc etc ??????????????

Then we can give a proper diagnosis :)

Cheers Dave
