I have an 2017 SR3.  About 50% of the time I need someone to roll the car in order to shift out of neutral.  I think the shift lever needs to be adjusted but I don't have the tool they reference in the manual.  Any suggestions?

Hi @ntf3000,  A similar situation came up on the Forum a while back and Dan from RLM was able to help.  He suggested checking to make sure the bearing on both ends of the actuator have not failed (loose or sloppy).  Then measure the distance along the actuator shaft to ensure it is 166mm from the actuator to the nut.  The picture in the owners manual does a good job showing where the measurement is taken, but it doesn't need to be measured with the tool.

After the above also make sure the clutch button on your steering wheel is working.

If you are having trouble lift the clutch pedal and press it again, this can sometimes help.
