Just did it. It took me all afternoon, and that was with 2 sets of instructions

always strange to have a random picture of yourself put on a thread!

thats me leaning into the car - and my father behind the wheel!

I'm glad to say that I didn't recognise you from that angle...

I thought I'd seen those wheels before

Loz had those wheels on his GS didn't he?

Congratulations Steve!

There is a mechanism which stops you moving the selector past the neutral position into reverse or park whilst the car is moving forward at any speed, whether the brake pedal is pressed or not. On my GS I noticed that if I came to a stop quickly from high speed and tried to shift into Park immediately, the selector wouldn't go past Neutral, in exactly the same way as if I hadn't pressed the brake pedal.

Maybe this has something to do with your problem. It took me a while to work out what was going on - I thought that it was just an intermittent fault at first, as non of my other automatic cars have done it.

I don't know what signal triggers this behaviour, but it could be this that is malfunctioning causing you not to be able to select Reverse or Park from Neutral.

I'm sure Colin will have a few ideas on what it could be.

I'm fluent in French... But it does surprise me how many french people can't understand their own language! :)

Seriously though, I can order a meal, buy a train ticket and get a room in a hotel. Thats about it!

So who's actually coming now? Zee and I are all booked up.

Origin B2 as well. Had it about a year and have been well pleased with it.

Last year my GS300 Sport II cost me £750 with Elephant. Just tried a quote again, and it came up as £709. I'm 26 with 8 years no claims, no accidents, claims or convictions, and I park on a driveway.

i have no problem staying in geneva thurs and fri night.............

even the trains are a pain in the bum...............

Matt, did you manage to sort any transport?

I would have been so ****** off if my parents had sent me somewhere like that. I think that it was the nursing home threats that stopped them!

LOL!! I don't think its working...

What airport do you need to fly from Matt?

anyone watching it

one of them is my relations

I am now... Which one?

well in that case i can met u on thurs sometime and we can have a few beers that evening!  :D

We don't land at Geneva Airport until 22:40 on the Thursday, so it would have to be later on!

Go Gold Now!!

I sold my Lexus 6 months ago, but have renewed my Gold membership because many of the discounts and group buys aren't Lexus specific. Saved loads of money at Lexus dealerships whilst I had mine.

Hmm. Gonna have to find me one of these then. Sounds like a long way.

I should be coming along. Just the booking and travel arrangements to sort out with Zee. Is it easy to get between the airport and the motorshow?

good job you've got that sensible car to fit in mate! how is the merc?

←

What car have you got now Gus? Sounds like you've done the sensible thing and gone German...

Cheers mate. I think we should be okay, i'm pretty sure Aido knows where he's going.

Are you sure he does... I suppose there's a first time for everything!

I had a Nokia CK-1W Bluetooth kit fitted on my '99 GS300 Sport at Lexus Nottingham. They got someone in to fit it, they didn't do it themselves. This too muted the stereo, but used the Nokia speaker.
