On my 1991 Volvo 940 Turbo, the automatic transmission won't shift into 4th gear,and it has no OD function. The linkages are all loose on the transmission ( the bushings were removed by the original owner) despite the car being in very good shape, and though I flush the transmission, I never messed with the linkages since basically they work.
Is it possible the loose linkages cause this problem? Sometimes when I pull over on he highway, and I throw it into R and then back into 2 and then D, the 4th gear and OD work like a charm.

--Could this be the OD relay?
--Could this be something else, like dirt in the transmission ? Happened on my Corolla 88 after I did a flush( if so, what)
