F3 limited Paddle shifter will not shift into reverse or neutral
My new F3 Limited will not shift into neutral or reverse when I stop! It wants to stay in 1st gear! No problems shifting forward, but hard time getting it to shift into neutral when I stop for gas or a rest break! Help, any suggestions?
I appreciate your answers, love the F3, but need to backup or stop!

That's the problem, you can't shift into neutral from 1st gear! You can stop, put your foot on the brake pedal and push on the back of the shifter until you are blue in the face, it will not go into neutral! Will not shift into reverse either! It won't down shift to a lower gear while riding either, you have to let it do it's own downshifting! I have owned 3 Spyders with the SE transmission, so reading a book is not going to help me, I think the dealer is going to have to change out the left hand shifting switch! Many thanks to all of you for your answers, that is what makes this a great site!
