Frozen Transmission Selector S80 1999

posted by  someone claiming to be TCF on  Tue Dec 10 03:03 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I posted a message a few weeks ago about a transmission selector problem I was having when the temperature drops below freezing. I couldn't get the transmission selector out of "Park" until the car warmed up for several minutes. I received a response indicating they thaught the selector solenoid was bad.

Took the S80 to the dealer and he agreed to replace the transmission selector module.

Took a trip to Montan this week and the problem remains - in fact it seems to be worse. Each day the temperature was well below freezing and I had to sit in the car and wait for the heater to begin putting out hot air before I could get the selector out of "Park".

Is this normal or do I still have a problem?

Any advice.....
