Im new and just wanted to say hi - 5/8/2008 11:17:20 AM    cbcbterry   Posts: 2 Joined: 5/8/2008 Status: offline I am new to this and am hoping for some help. I have a 2006 charger and it is having some problems. I went to take the kids to school and could not get it out of park and was completely out of oil and I have no leaks. Anyone else with this type of problem? I love my car but it has been a rough 1 1/2 years with problems. Thanks cbcbterry Post #: 1

There are two probable answers more than likely it’s the second. First there is a hidden switch to the right of the shifter that allows you to take the car out of park (if it was being towed or for some other reasons). Second there several plastic shift linkages on the transmission.  One in particular has an eyelet that a return spring attaches to.  Most likely that eyelet for the return spring has broken. I've seen threads on this issue on other forums, I'll do some searching and will post up more info or will PM you a link to other forum threads. < Message edited by MangoInTX -- 5/8/2008 12:26:50 PM > (in reply to dustyloins) Post #: 3

How often do you change oil?  Do you see colored smoke from the exhaust?  What color is the inside of the tailpipe? (in reply to cbcbterry) Post #: 7
