Default E-Shift Problem

Has anyone heard of the E-Shift tranny slipping back to manual automagically? Meaning when I have the gear shift leaver in the manual (M) mode it just slides right back to the drive (D) position.

I've heard it in Audis with lever sliding from P to R, and Jeeps sliding from N to D.

No, I've never heard it happen in the GS. It takes some amount of force to shift from M to D in my car.

Default E-Shift

Well, I have no idea what causes it to slide right back into D position. I really Enjoy driving the car in the M position but know because of the problem I can't enjoy it as much. I have to hold the shift level in the M mode. I heard only one person of the problem..

i've been known to bump mine into D with my knee inadvertantly. it does not take much since it is right at that level. but mine has never slipped over by itself...and i tend to use my e-shift a lot. in fact i always drive the car in M.

take it back the dealer. would have been nice to have a gate built into the M selection.
