My 2005 Passat TDI will shift into any gear but it wont engage. I had to put new seals into transmission and I put new seal around oil pan because it was only starting out in 2nd gear I had no 1st gear slight leak , I should add I had driven it around just a bit while it was like this just a slight leak starting in 2nd gear .Well that slight leak turned into a gushing leak so I took transmission off engine and replaced ring or seal on the inside I put it all back togather to tork specs hooked all connectors back togather put the right transmissions fluid in and happily found no leaks while running ,however I put it gear and it will engage into any gear but will not engage into a driveable gear including reverse. Can anyone please please tell me what it could be I would be extremely grateful indeed .Thank you for your time………Mike.M in Idaho.
