Clicking behind dash when shifting out of park? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

brsaresmgs · 02-05-2015, 06:06 PM

This afternoon I noticed that my 2013 auto FR-S started making a clicking sound behind the driver side dash when I move the shifter left and right while in park. I took a video and you can clearly see / hear that it is related to me moving the shifter. Does anyone have any idea what the noise is?

I dont have an auto, but there must be some sort of linkage that wont let you take it out of park unless the brake pedal is depressed.
Maybe that system is making noise?

It does sound like the shift lock but I had my foot firmly on the brakes the whole time. Any if this is something that I need to get fix asap?

I've had this since the day I bought it. I assumed its the relay that signals the computer to release you out of park.

I consider it as normal operation. Over time you wont even notice it.
