A4LD
No Reverse
A No Reverse condition may be caused by the plug behind the kickdown valve being out of position.

To check for this problem, simply put the shift lever into reverse, pull the pan off and blow air into the line pres-
sure tap on the left side of the unit. Air of fluid will normally shoot out of several places, including the filter, but
should not shoot out of the exhaust port shown in figure 1. If you do get oil or air out of the port, check figures
2 and 3 for correct kickdown valve bore assembly positions.
