On my 1998 xj8 when I put it in reverse the car barely move shift through the gears an go back to reverse it goes into gear

Great question.
PRNDL (is the cable good both ends) shifer>?
R good
L good?
Drive , selected and 1st gear car will not move ?
or 1st gear car moves good but will not up-shift.
1,2,3,4 gear. 1st slips or works??????????????
name 4T60 (transverse 4speed box) GM./
DIY?
check fuse first
scan the PCM (the PCM has TCM) the TCM tranny brain and if TCM is not happy it tells you why
so all carsChev 1992+ must be scanned, first.
the 4t60E box is electronic shifted. scan it.
what is miles on car.? 100k,300Kwhat?

causes are vast, (ever see inside any A/T box)
the next test in the book is pump pressure test
PRNDL

Need transmission repair. Sorry.

It can be issue with gears or problem with transmission and needs to be rebuilt. Also get the ****** fluid checked. If it's low, then such problems occurs.

The shifter needs to be inspected. If The shifter assembly is got misaligned, it has to be open and realign.

There are many other possibilities.

Also i suggest you to refer these gear shift issues, which are mostly noticed. These are direct links with appropriate solutions to the specific problems of gear ****.

http://www.autozone.com/autozone/repairinfo/repairguide/repairGuideContent.jsp?fromSearchPage=true&pageId=0900c15280251027&partName=Neutral+Safety+and+Back-up+Light+Switches&partId=0900c15280251027 Here you go,try this.

Have you just replaced the clutch? Taken out the transaxle, and put it back in? Are you sure transmission was in good condition before this? If so, review your procedure carefully to be sure you got it all back right.
Watch the slave cylinder while someone depresses clutch. You should see the little plunger move slightly out and move the clutch lever back. The lever moves the release bearing inside bell housing into contact with the pressure plate. If slave cylinder doesn't move at all, try bleeding again. The plunger has to move when clutch is engaged.
I'm not sure what you mean by "will shift but won't go into gear". You mean it's actually going into a gear position and car won't move? Or it won't go into any gear, period. As if you had no clutch?

shift coils or relays in the transmission need replacement.

sounds like the shift cables are corroded or seized, forcing the shift may have bent the linkage. inspect and replace the shift cables and inspect the cable bracket, bend back into shape if required :)

if it will not shift out of park when the brake is pushed then in will be the shift interlock, but if it is still hard to move after out of park then it will be a shift cable
