09 Mini Brake Question/Strange Occurrence

Hello Nam,

Today something started happening that I noticed while the auto transmission is in park. Basically, when in park and i depress the brake pedal, there is a knock/click and vibration in the shifter. So, the scenario is this: While in park, if I put my foot on the brake, I can feel it in the shifter and hear it. I can only get this to happen in park. Any ideas what is happening here?

Thanks

Remember that there is a shift interlock that's released when you depress the brake pedal to remove the transmission out of park.
Are you sure that's not what you're hearing? Or is it something else?

Thanks for the reply,

I think your explanation is spot on. The weird thing was I had not ever noticed it before yesterday.

Appreciate it....
