Checking The Selector Mechanism

The starter does not work when the selector lever is in the "R", "D" or "S" positions or in the Tiptronic gate.

Over 5 km/h (3 mph)

The shift lock solenoid must not block the selector lever when the lever is in the "N" position. The selector lever can be moved back into a another gear.

Below 5 km/h (3 mph)

The shift lock solenoid will block the selector lever approximately 1 second after the lever is moved into the "N" position. The selector lever can be moved out of "N" only when the brake pedal is pressed.
