this is and i am so

I have a 92 taurus lx sedan i've had the car for about 6 yrs kept good car of it

i got the transmission rebuilt about 3 years ago.

Now my problem is this.. When i First start my car up, it has no problem going into gear but once i drive it for about 5 mins it slips out. and wont go into any gear at all but Park. When i stop the car i can move the selector through every gear but nothing happens. It's not engaging and the motor isn't idling down. Almost like i never moved it out of park. I was thinking it was the selector but it has to be something else because when i let it sit for a long time it goes right into Drive. Somebody PLEEEAAASSEEE Help me before i go

I have the exact same problem with my 92 GL Taurus Sedan, started happening about 2 years ago. I found that if I drive in "drive" instead of "overdrive" it doesn't happen at all, then I just switch to "OD" for highway/high speeds, and back to "D" once I slow down again, it's a pain, but it's a work around that gets the job done I guess. I too would like to know what people think of this.

It doesn't matter if im in OD or not, i can select any gear at all, i can't even go into reverse.. so this is not going to work, read my post again please

Read my post again.. I'm talking about starting in Drive, not shifting into drive once the problem has occured. For me this has been a solution to the exact same problem you've discribed, your results may vary.
