Hi all,

I have a well taken care of 2015 P5 that has been having issues with shifting. I've tried to adjust the clutch and it either goes from slipping into each gear to not wanting to shift into the next gear. There is no in-between in the adjustment. It started slip shifting on a hot summer day a few years ago. But when the key was turned off and it sat for a few minutes, it shifted normal again.

It's had regular oil changes with Honda 4 stroke 10w-30.

Could there be an issue with the angle position sensor?

Thanks for any help!

Could be low battery issue. My shifter failed to function but she would still start up no problem. I put a new battery in and problem solved. Good luck.

Thanks. I just changed the battery several weeks ago. It's still doing it. I just wonder if I don't have the clutch exactly spot on or it is something with the sensor. I ordered on since they're cheap.
