Why is my gear selector not rising on startup?
A few weeks ago, my previously fine XF decided to NOT raise the gear selector knob on startup. No amount of restarts or battery disconnects etc sorted it. Apart from the selector not rising, gearbox fault and parking brake fault were displayed on the dash.
