Hi! I own a Mini Rover 1998 from Japan and I have a problem that I need help with. When I am in Gear 1, 2, 3, or D the car very slowly moves forward as if I wasn't pressing on the gas but when I do press on the gas the car remains the same speed but it still revs. The only fully functioning gear is Reverse. Please message back with help.

Hi, sounds like the forward clutch is suspect, how many miles has the car done? If it was my car I would carry out a transmission oil pressure test. Forward clutch failure is probably the top cause of problems with these transmissions. Sorry!

Please message back with help. I would say either the pressure is low (check at the filter head) or the clutches are worn. Tarija and Santa Cruz, Bolivia |

I can be contacted on martin@kmprecisionengineering.com
Firstly exactly how are you checking the oil level ? as this is a common fault with people and garages that don't understand these units.
If your oil level is ok and if you get the same result in the manual positions ie 1, 2 & 3 then it is a forward clutch issue, and as a bove the first port of call is a pressure test to clarify that, do not try to drive it, just engage a gear wait for 3 seconds then lightly accelerate the engine should be held back in all gears, if not then forward clutch would be the main issue, to fit a forward clutch you would need an 18G1094 to align the pipe/s and an 18G1097 to hold the forward clutch in place whilst you fit the auxiliary pump, the 18G1094 also acts as a setting gauge to ensure the forward clutch is fitted correctly.
