First let down by the X5
Went to a B&B in Gettysburg this weekend and I came out on Saturday morning to find that my X wouldn't get out of Park. So I had Roadside Assistance send some help and they had to disconnect the trans linkeage and manually put it in neutral. The shifter still wouldn't come out of park even though the digital display registered as being in neutral. Also, the car decided to not allow me to take the key out. Anyway...I had the car taken to a dealer in Mechanicsburg PA (a good 2 hours from my house). This dealer was awesome! Not only did he give us a loaner and schedule the X5 for Monday but he is going to have his tech drive the car back to my house and pick up their loaner. Apparently, they do this for all service on cars sold from their dealership. So all in all things turned out okay, just wondering what the hell happened that locked the X in Park.
Specs:
2004, 4.4 with 33K on it.
