Please complete your profile so we know what your working on/with.

I would confirm that the manual shift cable is properly adjusted.

1. Put the shifter in neutral.
2. Raise the car.
3. Crawl under the car and remove the cable at the transmission shift lever.
4. Rotate the transmission shift lever clockwise all the way. This is PARK.
5. Now rotate the shift lever counter-clockwise two detents. This is now NEUTRAL.
6. Re-attach the cable at the shift lever. Torque the nut to 11 ft-lb (132 in-lb).
7. Lower the car.
8. Confirm that the shifter operates correctly.
