Guys, I'm really freaking out. Just now, while driving smoothly, the D gear light (the one on the gear shift) started flashing, and the dashboard showed "Please shift to D gear first before selecting the appropriate gear." I was in a panic and didn't know whether to press the brake and shift to P gear or shift to P gear and then to D gear, and then it prompted "Speed too high to shift into D gear (or maybe P gear, I forgot)." It was terrifying, the car felt like it was in neutral and there was no power when I pressed the accelerator. I managed to park on the side using inertia, shifted back to P gear, and then to D gear, and it resumed normal driving. I want to ask you guys, what's going on here exactly? Is there a specific part that's malfunctioning?

The gear shift light for the 150 isn't working. Could it be that a button hasn't been turned on? The P, R, D indicators don't light up at night when the car is running.

4MG HS experiences a strong jolt when shifting from P to R or D when the car is cold. This has happened many times. When I went to the service center, the technician connected a computer and reprogrammed the transmission for gear learning. It got better, but after some time, the jolt returns when shifting gears with a cold engine.

6Before driving, I can only shift gears by pressing the shift lock button, and once I shift back to the P gear, I have to press the lock button again to shift! The brake lights are working fine! I recently replaced the handbrake cable and gear cable. Has anyone else experienced this situation?
7When the MINI is in D gear and you brake, if there's a prompt to shift the transmission to P gear, there might be a couple of reasons for this. It could be an issue with the gearbox or a safety feature that's activating. If the car doesn't move when you release the brake, it might be due to a malfunction or an electronic system engaging to prevent movement. It's best to consult the vehicle's manual or contact a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue accurately.
8Nissan X-Trail e-Power, I have two questions: 1) When the door is opened in D or R gear, the car alarms, but it doesn't shift back to P gear. Is that correct? I seem to remember it would automatically shift back to P gear before. 2) The speed-sensitive setting for the front wipers is on, but it doesn't seem to activate automatically when it rains. Why? Thanks for the explanation.
