N Position: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Engine power transmitted from the mainshaft (7) drives the mainshaft 3rd gear (34), the 3rd shaft 3rd gear (39), but hydraulic pressure is not applied to the clutches. Power is not transmitted to the output shaft (10). In the N position, the position of the reverse selector differs according to whether the shift lever was shifted from the D or P position in the following ways:
- When shifted from the D position, the reverse selector engages with the output shaft 5th gear (12) and the reverse selector hub (9), and the output shaft 5th gear (12) engages with the output shaft (10).
- When shifted from the R position, the reverse selector engages with the output shaft reverse gear (8) and the reverse selector hub (9), and the reverse gear (8) engages with the output shaft (10).
