mrsnoops · May 26, 2012

hi all, i hope someone my be able to help. sometimes when i select park om my 300 tdi instead of holding i get a clicking & the vehicle will move. can the park function be adjusted or replaced easily, i know auto boxes can be a nightmare but i wonder if anyone has had the same problem.

cable can be adjusted on lhs of box also check were cable is clamped to mounting,it clicks as park is a pawl that is pushed into a toothed wheel in rear most housing of box

Thanks jamesmartin, I'll have a look underneath tomorrow to see if I can locate the cable and actuator adjuster. Don't suppose you or anyone else has any photos of the bit to adjust?
