Yesterday afternoon after work I quickly went to a local Norma store to buy some food. As I prepare to leave this helpless-looking old lady approaches me and asks me if I know anything about cars and if I can help her with her car.
I tell her I do and asked what the problem was. She tells me she just bought a new car and she can't get the automatic transmission from P into R or D. The parking lot was pretty empty so I figured her car was the smokesilver Mercedes B180 CDI in the far corner. I ask her if it is the B-Class and she says "Ja".
We get to the car, I start it up, step on the brake and put the transmission from P into R and then into D. Works fine. Looks like grandma forgot to step on the brake or something.
She sounded like a very confused or forgetful woman. Anyway, I told her to keep the brake pedal depressed when changing gears while the car is parked. I made sure she did this and saw her drive off.

.....Check your pockets, maybe she left a blank cheque somewhere for you...
