Check your owner's manual first and then start searching the internet to include YouTube for solution to your problem. Usually on the shift module there is a spot where you can insert a rod such as ink pen which will then press down the release lever so you can move the shift lever into neutral. Does your car have any jumper points under the hood to which you can attach a battery starter pack? If yes, use that to jump start your vehicle then back it out so you can get to the battery under the passenger seat. Remember to not have the key fob in the ignition switch when you attach the battery starter pack! I've only worked in an R350 one time under the passenger seat and it was a PITA.
