Hi Mike, and welcome to the forum, the ap2 gearbox fitted to yours has 2x separate clutch packs, one is known as the forward pack the other is the top and reverse pack, the fact you do not have top and reverse indicates this. There is a few things to check first, oil level,selector adjustment.

I can be contacted on martin@kmprecisionengineering.com Hi Mike, you found us then. Samantha told me that she had recommended you to the AMR  Also a cheap method for fault diagnostics is to use a pressure gauge on the transmission to determine if pressure is a problem, not the oil pressure at the engine as that is completely different, if you find you have low pressure a good place to start is the oil filter housing gasket between the oil filter housing and the front cover. |

Hi Mike,
Welcome to the forum - My 1996 Mini Mayfair had exactly the same problem at very low mileage too - I wish I'd known Martin and Limby then! Hopefully you'll get it sorted soon.
Roger.
