C6 2005 automatic huge problems! Wont start!
Please help! I cant get the car to start anymore. I've had some problems similar to other not getting the gear down, I've been fine with that as it usually only took 1-3 tries and it would work.
This morning I felt something strange as I pulled down to get into "D". It was soft and dint go into the gear with a firm click. Also the car would start rolling even though I was on "N".
I pulled it to park but it still rolled from some reason as it was in "D". I turned off the car and thats when it all went to hell. I could not start the car anymore, it says: shift into park.
After "kicking" it to park it would not show the message but it would not start the car. It would reboot instead all over, blink like nothing happend. Everytime I tried to start the car.
I tried to get into "R" "N" and "D" and start it but nothing.
Reading as much as I could find on this I decided to cut the boot open for the shifter. I could not find much that looked odd to me but that is also why I made a video.
I checked all fuses, I took away the battery for over 2 hours to reboot the process the only 2 things I did hear is clicking from is:
1) The solinod
2) Somewhere in the glove box
Now I get tons of different messeges and I think the car is going crazy with error codes and dont know what is happening.
Anyone that can help me?

I found that the cable was broken.... thank god and F*CK at the same time.
1) what do you want for your shifter? (automatic right?) and is it working good?
2) is this the correct part for a new cable, part no: 15888331
