I'm not sure with car being a UK model - but the shiftlock is located directly on the side of the shifter.


Alternatively, could it be transmission fluid level? Can’t find a dipstick even though I think my transmission is supposed to have one. Do I have to remove the engine cover to access the dipstick? Or maybe it’s broken shifter cable somewhere?
There isn't a dip stick you check the level via the fill hole. Start the engine and with the car idling fill the tranny till the fluid overflows back out the fill hole.
