I need advice please on a problem Prado:
The patient : 2006 TDI , Auto, 81K, well looked after.
The Problem: When the vehicle is in Park I cannot start the engine. The key gets to the point past the Accessory position ready to the firing point and that is as far as I can turn the key. I put the car in Neutral and all is fine and the engine is able to be started as normal. This does not happen all the time and has only appeared in the last couple of days. I have had the car since new and this is the first hint of trouble.
I intend to take it to a mechanic but would be nice to be able to stear him in the right direction and not be charged hours of "Looking Time". Your collective ideas would be appreciated. Nobby
