Jumps into park

[ECrider]

You can trick it by "two-footing" the pedals.
Keep light pressure on the brake and press the accelerator pedal.
This seems to keep it from jumping into park.

Interesting. Will try that.

Interesting. Will try that.

Simply tried this, for the first time, a few minutes ago: Trailer hooked up, normal drive mode, seatbelt not fastened. Backing with the the trailer, i.e. transmission in rear, moving, opened the door: Nothing happened, could just drive further backwards. Offroad mode not engaged.

Did not try earlier because everybody says it'll jump into park, and I didn't want to ruin my transmission...

Out of interest, what happens if you open a door at speed (or if a faulty switch makes the vehicle think you've opened a door)? Is it "goodbye gearbox" or does it know not to engage park at speed?

And do you get a series of bongs before the box goes bang
