Tiptronic shifter won't manually shift up or down.
Hi, My ML320 runs and shifts fine when the shifter is in D mode. The shifter lever itself though is against the left (drivers) side of the gate. So obviously I can't downshift - and when I move the lever to the right + it does nothing at all. So I believe there's a mechanical as well as a module problem. I'm not familiar with this shifter and would greatly appreciate some help as to what is wrong. I'm assuming the shift lever is supposed to be in the middle of the gate when at rest not the left side.

Take photos of the shifter while it is in the park PARK position and when put into DRIVE pos.
Can you move the shifter to the right?
Do you have a simple code reader or do you have a scanner?

I described the issue backwards. The shift lever is held to the right side not the left. I can pull it to the left but nothing happens. I can't move it to the right.
I have an iCarsoft MBll. Generic OBDll scan....No DTCs. MB scan P1912.
Thanks for the response. I think I may have tried to upload too large of pics and it's awaiting approval by a Mod.
