When you put the car in gear to drive the letter M is beside the letter D for driving??
It stands for "Manual". It allows you to shift gears manually, without a clutch, for those performance oriented drivers. You can also use it to stay in low gear for climbing steep hills or driving in snow. Once you shift into "M" by moving the stick to the left of the "D" position, you should see a number "1" just above the "M", letting you know you're in first gear. Pushing the stick forward or backward shifts gears.

If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/michael_2496c4f07ad24453

2006 Cadillac cts will not start can not take key out shift moves out of park I get code po700
in most vehicles they use a steel wire to connect the turning of the key-ignition with the shifting lever. if this cable is broken or out of adjustment, it could cause a problem like that. just an idea.

There is a rubber bushing that sits inside the shift linkage that wears out over time. It will not damage the trans if you drive it that way. It is just a little noisy and sounds bad when moving the shift lever.

2003 CTS Automatic when i change gears from drive to park or park to drive i hear a clanking noise when i change the gears. If someone is standing there when you pull up and you put the car in park......
I had the same noise on my wife`s 03 cts. It was the the rubber bushing on the shifting arm from the shift lever to the trans. The arm was 250.00 plus I installed myself. Very easy to get to. Bad design should not have went bad.
