Default Rolling in Park

The wife shifted into park accidentally on the highway. The park mechanism broke. I believe its called the parking pawl...

I have searched far and wide and cannot find information on how to replace this part, or even a proper diagnosis / part number... I'm not going to pay a mechanic $1000 to replaced a $30 part.

Symptoms: Car rolls while in park.
YMM: 2006 Chevy HHR LT 2.2L

Can someone confirm the name of the part is a parking pawl, and tell me how I might go about replacing said part?

For perspective, I have done full engine removals and rebuilds in the past, so I am pretty proficient mechanically. However I have not successfully fixed a transmission issue before.

Found my answer on AKO. THANK YOU Army... lol:



  1. Remove the manual shaft to transmission case pin (803).ImportantThe parking lock actuator assembly (807) remains attached to the manual shaft and detent lever until the assembly is removed.
  2. Remove the manual shaft and detent lever assembly (806) by pushing the manual shaft into the transmission case (51). The parking lock actuator assembly (807) remains attached to the detent lever until you remove the manual shaft and detent lever assembly.Caution! Do not damage the case bore during removal of the manual shift shaft seal.
  3. Remove the manual shaft seal (809) from the case (51).






In other words... I get to pull the AT.... Lovely.
