Gear Shift problem

Let us know whether that works =)

thanks..whenever i hear the alarm after engine off, I know i'm not in "P" gear...the alarm will juz keep beeping until i hv engaged "P"
and turn switch completely off..this is a safety feature for all auto cars right ?

I assumed you did press the unlock button with your thumb when you shift P->D right? it is a safety feature to warn drive the car is going to move off and look around you for other people or car before you drive, simple logic but there was tragic. D->P dun need to warn the driver if you are parked so no lock.

same as mine
rongshu:
for the alarm sound, it won't sound if you just switch off engine. The ignition switch should be at ACC position.
it only sounds if you try to switch from ACC position to Lock.
So if in gear N and you switch off the engine and continue turning the switch to Lock, you will hear the alarm sound. But if you just switch off the engine and it remains at ACC, there won't be alarm.

Ok this one is quite hard to explain, must visualize.
When u put to park, some of the teeth of some gear will lock into another gear's slot. So when you park on slope and put to D and release brake, you will feel the car roll abit before the teeth locks the car into a stationary position. So when you release from P next time, its harder to pull because the weight of the cars are on the teeth.
Solution is to put to N, engage parking brake(use leg for latio one), release your foot brake(the one you use to brake normally), den change gear to P.
