@kezo Quick question, as a break from the budget fallout
A few times lately I’ve been unable to select drive or reverse on the selector stalk. The car is started and P (park) is illuminated. I put my foot on the brake and select reverse and nothing happens. If I select drive a ping happens and a message comes up to say that gear is already selected, but it’s still in park. Today I tried turning the car off and restarting twice and I still couldn’t engage drive or reverse. In the end I locked the car (with me inside) and unlocked and then it worked. Have you experienced this? any thoughts? Thanks.

Thanks.I get that frequently and often think, its because I’m quicker than the car when I start the engine and select D or R too quickly, so like you, my reaction is to restart and try again, but to no avail. Come what is effectively the third attemp, I let the car run till all the lights turn off and again try, perhaps adding a bit more pressure to the brake pedal. Depending where you are it can be fecking embarrassing.
This showed the other day and I’m sure I have had a similar but not identical warning message before – will have to look through photos. It did however, reset on restart and I also get alot of electronic hanbrake warning😂
