Whilst making a U turn yesterday in a very confined space I found that when changing from Forward to Reverse Gear and vice versa that the gear box did not always engage leaving me in Neutral - has anyone else had this problem?

Gear Selector
You have to pull the button in and move the stick fully forward - it's easy (as you found) not to do it quite right!
I also discovered you can use the stick to do up and down shifts in Sport mode, instead of using the paddles.

Lots of leather and toys, and loads of noise!

The problem persisted even when I was very careful about ensuring the button was pulled in before moving the selector.
Does anyone know whether the gear Selector is physically / mechanically connected to the gearbox or if it is an electronic connection? if the latter then I may have to have it checked by jaguar Dealer. The car still has 14 months of the 3 year guarantee on it to run.
I just love the paddles,changing down using the paddles not only saves on the brakes but makes a glorious sound accompanied by Pops and Crackles -Oh Joy!
