My 05 Cadillac SRX has had the typical linkage issues since I bought it 2 weeks ago.i initially bought a replacement joint yesterday when for some reason the car would pop into neutral.
I installed it last night and had no issue till about a hour into driving. The problem returned.
I then purchased the full linkage and have installed it, but believe I am not adjusting it properly.
It goes into drive sporadically. The shift selector button doesn’t pop out fully in reverse or in 4 (Park reverse neutral drive 4)
I haven’t seen anything indicating that. The nut has been tight when I “go back under”…
Regardless… I’ve taken it lose about 15 times and scooted it over… Tighten test… Loses tighten test etc
I’m not slow… And I’m pretty sure I did everything as instructed. Unfortunately the SRX does not have a on dash gear indicator. So, if the issue is the adjustment, I have no way of knowing.
There’s a solenoid that is responsible for fluid pressure. Without the proper pressure it will not change from neutral to drive, etc. I’m hoping this is the issue and the transmission does not need to be replaced outright
