Land Rover Repair: Land Rover discovery, land rover discovery, release button


Question
My Discovery which is a UK 04 plate was stuck in reverse after a relatively short journey.  I called the AA and by the time they arrived there wasn't a problem and I was able to drive away. The AA man said it had probably just cooled down and resolved itself but obviously I now want to know what might have caused this to happen? I would appreciate any information or explanation that you could offer.

Answer
Hi Sid,

more likely, your shifter was stuck and it could happen again.  Could be brake pedal switch (known to short out)OR there is a small clip on the shifter release button that can pop off.  Remove the cover from top of shifter and take a look to see if clip is still on or if its broken.  Should be easy to replace clip.

Best of luck,
