Re: My gears are P- park R- reverse D- drive (2 Drives...
- D with no circle is just "Drive." this a lower geared drive and best used around time as it provides a better pick up and over all response.
- OD is "Over Drive" and used for cruising speeds ove 50+ MPH down the highway. Over Drive allows the vehicle to cruise at a more sustained speed with less engine speed and provides better fuel consumption.
- While you are in Drive going down the highway and your speed reaches 50 MPH just switch gears into Over Drive and you will notice your car "relax" a bit. Remember you don't want to switch from Over Drive to Drive until you get down to around 45MPH or it can be a little rough on your engine and transmission.
- Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa.

With that, I have it in drive but when I move the lever to put in park or any other gear, it feels as though its not engaging within the column. Is there a simple fix besides replacing it
