He just stripped the switch & glued something inside it to get me home,he did say it will probably last longer than the plastic bit that broke as he replaced it with metal but I’m booking it in for a new switch. Andy.

If we all point our RR's in the same direction and accelerate at the same time can we turn back time?

It’s the first time he’s done one,luckily I was at the fiat dealership getting the wife a new 500.I got in the car to go home & the switch had broke Shocked .one good thing was if he hadn’t fixed it we had the fiat to go home in Laughing

Wow, well fair play to him for finding a solution to a problem.
I think Fiat's are more reliable than RR's these days so guess you would have been ok! Thumbs Up 2016 RRS SVR Estoril Blue

Got to say the guy was there over a hour trying to fix it as he didn’t want it recovered as they are a nightmare with it being stuck in park. Andy.

Not just mine then.For the sake of £40 it might be worth keeping one in the glove box just in case.
