YA IT SOUNDS LIKE YOUR SEAT SWICH IS BAD THATS THE MOST COMON THING I SEE A LOT OF LET ME KNOW IF THIS HELPS YOU

sorry. I don't have an ansewer for you however I might have some helpful hints. Your mower should be going dam near 5 MPH. But yes can't cut in reverse. you have a belt going from the trans axle to the motor. It could be slapping against the frame. The idler puller or the tension pulley could be wobaly where the bearings are gone out. If you remove the 4 bolts on the back of the mower under the seat and gas tank it should visable tell you the story. My question is mine hits gears real hard as if trans mission needs oil or internal damage.

I only had my mower 3 months and that problem started. I was told to change the drive belt, It got worse. Now the transmission will only drive the mower for about 15 min and will come to a complete stop. I have to let it sit about 30 min before the drive will work again. No solution yet but I'm looking at replacing the "sealed" drive assy. I do have a very healthy yard of St Augustine which is tough. I can mow a thinner yard a little longer.n

Well if new I would take it back and if used I would be looking for another hydrostatic transmission.
These can be found on ebay, and there are some lawnmower recyling yards out there, you have to look for them. The price of a new transmission far exceeds the price of a used mower and is almost the price of a new mower.
