Weird A4 Problem....Park /Reverse ?? I heard of some strange things happing before ,but nothing like this. I had just got threw changing my oil and I started the car up. Well ,my car act like it was about to jump off my Rhino ramps !! I said "WTF is this "!! ?? So ,I back the car down off the ramps and took it for spin. The went threw all gears without a problem. When I got back to my house , when I put the car in "Park".......the car would start backing up !! Then I put the car in "Reverse " and the car will sometime back-up and sometime it won't do nothing. The shifting is fine ,but something else is messed up. Any Ideas ??? Thanks in advance .

Sounds like the plastic on the shifter arm is broken.
O--===I-I-I-------------------------------Shifter in car
O is where shifter cable connects to transmission arm
= is black plastic that will break so the arm can be bent therefore not engaging in park all the way
I is where the brackets connect to the transmission
Mine did the same thing
