Mike the problem is a little solenoid that cannot be purchased by itself. The whole Shift Console has to be replaced. GM # 25913058 cost $255.00. Labor was $212.18 at the Chevy Dealer. I kept the old part.

mike, my 2006 a6 started sticking in park early in the season last year, it got worse as the year continued until nothing worked, even putting into accessory mode. I went to my dealer and after they understood what my problem was, they isolated it to a failing brake peddle micro switch. they replaced the switch and shifter under extended warranty. it has worked like a charm since the repair. good luck with your repair.

I stopped pushing so hard on my brake pedal at startup and the problem went away. Sounds crazy but it works every time.

It is a much bigger problem than Chevrolet and GM will admit to .... especially now that this model year is out of warranty. Because this is a safety requirement (park/lock feature) if you have experienced the failure you need to report it to the NHTSA and your local Consumer Protection Agency. A recall should have been issued and newer models supposedly have a different part and makeup to avoid the high cost necessary to replace the shifter with attached solenoid, shift cable, labor and sometimes even a new shift **** (It appears some shops have damaged them in removal/replacement).

record repair here, no matter if warranty, or paid by consumer.

I did the same thing but it went to the dealer and the discovered a faulty switch but ordered the complete shift assembly for $800 on them as I ask for the shift **** to be replaced. The dealer said that is a five minute job turned into a four day event.
