I cannot engage gears in my Toyota G-Touring. I went to mechanic who replaced the transmission cable. He then did bleeding. The system worked for one day and then failed again. What could be the possible problem and/or solution please. Charles

Yes there is excess pedal play. The gears can not go through and the reverse gear is producing a funny sound.

You should be able to adjust out any excessive free play at the master push rod, if not you maybe looking at a faulty master cylinder.
