*PROBLEM* with the 5At shifting

Sorry if I'am posting in the wrong place but I didnt know where else to post this.

Today for some reason when I would push the shift **** on the 5AT from D to DS and then the + / - after about 1 minute it switches back to just D by itself without me moving the shift ****.. then I push to over to the actual D and right after back to DS and it still it reading D and wont let me change gears with the shift ****.. But changing gears with the paddle shifters still works just not the shift ****.

If this happened to anyone, or if anyone knows what to do please help me out.

Thanks, Age

when you guys say shifter are you talking about the whole thing or just the shift ****.. and what is the full name of what the dealership replaced for you guys is called?

Im pretty sure its the whole shifting assembly... if you ever removed the shift **** and plate, then you would know what they are talking about... but dont go messing with that stuff, cause the dealer might be @$$H*L3$ about it and not cover it under warranty... but you should definitly take it back to your dealer where the car came from... if not, then im sure a local infiniti dealer should be able to help you and recover the maintenance reports from the original dealer.
