Hey fellas, I could do with any advice on this one
I can't move the car's tiptronic shifter in any gears (R,N,D,M). It is locked in P and I am totally annoyed by that :/ Was sure German cars were good for 99 years (minimum).
Background; took the car for a spin around the block two weeks ago, at a great top speed of 40kmph, came back home, parked it, and placed the car cover back on. All good fun.
Last Sunday: I've recharged the battery for 2~3hrs (the car barely started the week before). I've disconnected the NEG pole of the battery before hooking up the charger.
Today; I've reconnected the pole to the fully charged battery, started the car (wroom!), but can't place it in the Drive gear - or any gears. The shifter is locked into the P position.
Progress: I've dismantle the shifter's push button, thinking the tension spring is broken and stuck in there, but everything turn out in good shaper there.
Immob, sensor/brake pedal, ignition switch? can someone point me in the most obvious direction so that I can (hopefully) get this sorted with your help. I'd hate to flatbed the car with the rear wheels squeaking madly everywhere (that will leave a mark for sure loll)
