Reverse issue
So this has happened to me two times now, over the 6 months I have owned the car..
Trying to reverse up a steep hill, the engine will rev to ~1800rpm and then it seems there is no power. No matter how much throttle I press, nothing happens. The first time the car didn't move backwards at all (front wheel was outside the edge of the road, so it was extra tough), the second time the car was filled with people (everybody got out and then I managed to get the car up the hill). Am I looking at two months salary for a remanufactured gearbox, or could it be an oil issue ? Previous owner claimed the oil was changed when he bought the car, but it wouldn't be the first claim that turned out to be wrong... No fault codes of course.
