Yeah, I cocked up and winched in park.

Now when in park I can push the machine and I hear the pawl going tap, tap, tap, tap.

I mean why even give these machines a park that is (as I have since learned) so weak you can't even trailer the vehicle or park on an incline with it?

Rant over.


So I guess I should drain the transmission and check for shrapnel?
I have a small usb  inspection camera and a flex magnet so I'll have a fish around when I'm up at camp next
Never, Never,  Never, Never,
Use a winch with your vehicle or side by side in park. Always park brake and chocks with vehicle in neutral.
A damaged transmission is the result from winching in park.
