    quick transmission and turn signal questions

    Today when I got home today and tried to put my car in park, and it wouldn't get pass neutral. Thats with the car running and with it off (key still in). Eventually I kinda forced it, but I heard like a cricket chirp sound in reverse. Tranny still functions but w/ that slight sound in reverse.

    Any ideas why..didnt have any problems earlief when backing out my driveway.

    Also my turn signal seems to not work sometimes unless I apply pressure holding it up or down..and sometimes it holds the signal on its own with no assistance. Also it'll blink fast for like 2 secs after being pressed sometimes. Do I need a new switch?

    Thanks in advance for any help

    Think I figured the tranny problem. My maf adapter broke right at the filter and it fell on part of the transmission linkage preventing it from engaging I think. Something told me to go back outside and look under the hood and I find that smh!

    Thanks for looking that up for me, bad thing is I already have a 3" aem dry flow thats barely half a year old. Not even worth cleaning yet to be honest Might get a ebay or used intake and use my filter or if that fails a better adapter.

    Only issue right now is the signal..which was the least of my concern compared to not having reverse lol. So far that chirp sound is gone, so I guess the filter falling/sittjng on the tranny was the culprit

    I just went and got another plastic one like I had. I figured why spend more than I have to. Costs me a lil less than 9 bux shipped. A metal adapter plus a 4.5" dry flow is gonna range me 55 -65 I estimate. My last adapter lasted me roughly 3 yrs..so if the next one fails in the same time span..it would cost me 18 bux for 6 additional years. Still comes out cheaper in the end lol. And 6 years from now who knows if the my car will still be around. Might try to rig some sorta support or brace to minimize movement if I get creative.

    Early on I think I remember a recall on the turn signal. The dealer replaced the unit at the column. Something to do with the light switch portion of the assembly.
