Ahmad,

Welcome to the MINIacs! I see this is your first post.

Sorry to read about your troubles...

I'm thinking it is shifter related... (See image) You can trouble shoot by having someone move your shift lever as you inspect the connector on the transmission where they connect, Is the cable moving in conjunction with the shifter?

You may also need to open up the center console to check to see if the shifter is still connected to the cable in the shifter... I would put money it is somewhere here, in ether the shifter assembly or where the cable connects to the transmission.

Best of luck with it.

Motor on!
