Need to move a subaru out that I already disabled. How do I get this beast out of park so I can roll it. Not looking to dismantle CVs unless no other option.
suggestions?
Car is to be towed but in a rough spot for tow access.

The dear old man walked away muttering "sheesh, next week the crazy Vanagon owner will be asking me to show him the start button in the borrowed Prius..."

... might be a Nippon thing - as my 2005 Civic has a little plastic cover, next to the auto shifter - remove that and stick a screwdriver down there to release the gearing and move to neutral - doubt modern VWs have such a feature

My sister's 2012 Dodge Challenger has one too. The car was broken into and the dumbasses thought it was a key slot that opened a magic cener console dope compartment- and proceeded to pry the shite out of it. The police report now states 'attempted vehicle theft' rather than just a teenager jockeyboxing.
