I’m going to climb under it and try to adjust that. The shift lever won’t go forward to the park position any further bc it is as far as the console will let it go. Any thought on this?

Maybe I should ask the question differently. Why do you say it feels like it’s starting in gear?

when I turn it over it will crank them act like it wants to take off. I have wheel chocks, so it doesn’t go anywhere it just feels like it’s trying to climb the chocks and rocks a little
