Hi,
Not as crazy as it sounds.
Basically, if in 'D' or 'R' the action of opening the door puts the car in 'P' and applies the parking break.
If the door is not fully closed, attempting to put the car in 'D' or 'R' results in the cryptic message on the console and a pinging sound:
"Risk of vehicle rolling Transmission not in P"
This seems to be an "Americanisum" aka OTT safety feature that I would really like to disable as I would like to be able to "drive" the car with the door open, if I so choose!
I don't have VCDS (Audi-isum - can't remember the Merc equivalent).
Does anyone know how to disable this feature?
Thanks
W.
