How to unlock the automatic transmission of the Nissan Qashqai J11

Model: Nissan Qashqai J11 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Transmission

In this video, we will see how to unlock the automatic transmission of a Nissan Qashqai J11, in case it remains stuck in the "P" position. If the car is on, turn off the ignition and apply the parking brake. Using a plastic spatula to avoid scratching anything, remove the shift lever cover. Under the cover, on the top left side, we will find a button that we will press with a thin screwdriver. This will be enough to unlock the shift lever, and we can move it to the "N" position for neutral, allowing us to move the car by hand.
