transmission rolled backward in gear after spinning out
Spun car out and went backward in gear. felt like gears weren't catching slightly afterwards. Now no gears can be engaged. Stick just spins around freely. What kind of damage am I looking at here?
Do you mean the gear shift lever? If so it sounds like something in your linkage is broken. How did you respond in the spin? Both feet in? You may have taken it out of gear during the spin, hopefully.
You can see in the back by the left tire well, if the shift rod has disconnected from the tranny or inspect under the boot maybe it disconnected from shifter lever, these are simple steps to determine if the tranny itself has been damaged
