It is not serious if there is a clicking sound when shifting into P gear without the car being fully stopped. Incorrect gear shifting operation: Downshifting requires deceleration first. Before shifting gears, the clutch pedal must be fully depressed. The gear lever should be operated gently, quickly, softly, and accurately. The clutch must be pressed all the way down, and gear shifting should be done in one smooth motion. Excessive wear of the gear lever ball socket: Excessive wear of the gear lever ball socket can cause the lower end of the gear lever to fail to push the sliding gear into place when shifting into first gear or reverse gear. This means it may slip out from above the groove of the first or reverse gear shift fork shaft guide block, preventing the first or reverse gear shift fork shaft from reaching the correct position during gear engagement. It is recommended to visit a repair facility to replace the gear lever.
