    I kind of have the same issue. Possible to get in 1, N and R with engine off, but with engine on, not possible. It goes into 1 or R in the display for a very brief moment (and you hear it mechanically), but instantly falls out to N again. Only with engine running. I actually have zero codes for this in INPA or any other scanner. Any idea what it could be? Im guessing not gear position sensor, since it works with the engine off? Actuator?
