The only experience I have with an automatic is where I had to put my foot on the brake pedal to be able to move from P to N. Seems like there is some logic/switch that not only lights the brake lichts, but also unlocks the shift lever. I guess that needs battery power, and if the battery is really dead, that logic does not work. Replacing the battery, or jump starting from another car's battery should work. Push or tow starting is a different thing all together, specially with an automatic. -- MH '72 97 '77 96 '78 95 '79 96 '91 900i
