2000 V70 missing third gear

Post by Masij »

Hi all! I received a Volvo v70 in good condition. the only big problem is the missing third gear. I have already changed the valve body and the B4 valve cap. and of course the transmission oil change. all other gears go smoothly. Do you think there is anything left to do to save this transmission? Thank you in advance for your help.

Someone touched the third gear band anchor bolt, the band is disengaged now. Normally it warrants a transmission removal, partial disassembly and reinstalling the band. It is possible to hook the band through the B4 servo hole, preload it, a helper person screwing in the bolt.
