    the bmw won't start kasi when i turn on the ignition key, the gauge reads the transmission is in d(drive), but the shift lever is in p(park). as you know, automatic cars won't start unless it's in the p(park) or n(neutral) gear. any advice?

    You're out of luck. Newer germans use electronic linkage on the transmission (even with manual transmissions). You have no choice but to bring that to the dealership.
