Kadjar Gear Shift Issues

Thanks for the reply! Hmm, nothing obviously unusual before it started. Just the odd slightly jerky shift maybe, but I thought that was normal. Did yours have the same grinding noises and shifting problems?

Okay, so the jerky shifts might have been a clue. Yes, my Kadjar eventually developed similar shifting issues – unclean shifts, and once or twice it even slipped quite badly. The grinding noise is definitely not good. Based on my experience and what the dealer eventually told me, it does sound like a control unit issue that's gone beyond just the display. Honestly, with those symptoms, I'd strongly recommend getting it to a workshop ASAP. Continuing to drive it could cause further damage to the gearbox itself. They quoted me around 1000€ for the repair of the control unit.

Thanks so much for the detailed info! Sounds like I'm facing the same problem. I will take it to the workshop.

I had a similar issue with my Kadjar! Although the symptoms you're describing sound pretty severe, the blank gear selection display definitely rings a bell. Was there any other unusual behavior you observed before this started happening?
