Dealer looked at it a few days ago and said almost positive it's the solenoid and suggested replacing the whole Tiptronic shifter.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, Pelicans. I have been looking for a Tiptronic shifter solenoid DIY for my 06 C2S. The key keeps getting stuck and the car thinks its not in park when it is. Dealer looked at it a few days ago and said almost positive it's the solenoid and suggested replacing the whole Tiptronic shifter. I am pretty handy so I would like to try to replace the solenoid (or the whole shifter may be easier to replaced) Does anyone have a picture of the solenoid? I wonder if it actually is part of the shifter? Thanks.

Is it a solenoid or a limit switch on the lever ? Ask in the 996/986 forum , they will know .

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
