New to AMR

[vee]

Hi my name is VEE, I am new to AMR

I have 3 MINI Automatics, 

1968 mark II currently restoring
1992 Mayfair some rust problems to sort out

* 1995 Mayfair * -  when i bought this one the previous owner had complete auto box replaced, and the car has only done 32,000 miles but i have a problem. The gears change does not seem to change to top gear. i can get forward and reverse gear, when you drive in D selected the gears only seem to go from 1st into 2nd gear as you drive upto 30mph doesn't go into 3rd and 4th 
I have checked the gear selection cable/linkage and the kick down linkage seems to ok 
Any advice please before i start pulling the unit out

Hi Vee, sorry for the very late reply. I'm not sure what the issue might be but I'll have a look at my Manual for the faul finding guidance later and come back to you.

It may be that the valve block is gummed up or the clutch / brake band is slipping.

Are you any further on with it since your post?

Regards, Stu.
