Hi.
My 2019 Berlingo has had a few problems recently which I would like to get sorted out. One of the problems is that it is now stuck in gear and I cannot select neutral. It is the EAT8 auto gearbox. This will make it hard to be recovered to my preferred garage.
Is there an easy way of unlocking the gearbox or do I have it dragged onto the recovery truck?

Re: Berlingo K9 gearbox locked
Can you clarify what you mean by locked in gear?
Is it that the gear lever doesn't move (if so, which position is it in?), or is it that the vehicle doesn't change gear when moving?

A decent recovery operator should have slippery Jims they can put under the drive wheels to load & unload.Jimart wrote: 11 Jun 2025, 12:06

Dragging a vehicle with the transmission locked in gear could be a really bad idea.
