Re: automatic problem
I believe there is an adjustment available by the shifter,, take off your center console and see where the cable shifts.... then you should be able to figure it out. Or,,,,, there might be an adjustment needed where the shift cable meets the trans..

Re: automatic problem
Thats right. There is an adjustment you can meke to the gear selector switch on the shifter. It basicly slides back and forth a bit for adjustment.
