what mine is doing is not moving in reverse, it is like it is in park but, when in drive it will move and it will also move like it is in drive when it is actually in neutral. anyway, any help would be appreciated greatly. do you think i have the right tsb or is it something different? thanks in advance, i've been reading the board for about a year now, unfortunatly i have something to post about now...

How old is your tranny fluid and what condition is it in?
It should be a light pink or red and have no burnt smell.
When was the last time you had a tranny service?

I was just leaving for work when my wife brought the car home and told me about the problem, i only had time to test it out to see what the problem was before i left so i didn't get to check the fluid (i'm at work now). the last tranny service was roughly a year and 25k miles ago. is it possible that there is something wrong with the shifter or something related becuase it just acts like it is in neutral when i have it in reverse and like it is in drive when it is in neutral...

There could be something wrong with shifter or indicator but you should start with the condition of the fluid.
