Rep Power: 0

ok..so i am new here..and i have a 99 honda civic auto, we bought it used and it was always a bit tough to get from park into gear (I mean pulling the shifter from P to R or D).

So today, I took the shift **** off and sprayed some lube down it, when i put the **** back on for some reason it got even harder and the key would not come out of the igntion.

I then read online how to get the key out by removing the console and checking key lock switch and adjust the shift cable. I went through all the steps on the 'bulletin' PDF i found....now it wont go past reverse!! I cant get the car to shift from P to D....it will only go as far as R.

HELP!
