Corolla O4 Gear Shift Problem by geovidal(op): 1:40pm On Jul 09, 2017

Please I need your advice . Any time I park the car and start the car to move, the gear knob is always stiff until I press the button above "P". Please what is the cause and likely solution to this issue. Meanwhile, the gear select very well and transmit smoothly. Thanks as I await your responses. Pic is attached.

Or you can wait till it's dark, or park in a shaded area (where you will get some reflection if the brake light is working)
