So to update, I've checked oil level at 40C* and was able to put in 3/4 of a Liter. For 2 weeks it did not happen once, always going into D/N/R no problem. I thought it was low oil that solved the problem, but 2 days ago it took about 10 tries of shifting it to get it out of park. From my research it could be solenoids in valve body. They don't have spare parts for gen 2, the only way is to buy full valve body for 4500 from dealer or used solenoids from ebay (green and brown are responsible for parking, I suspect green one is a problem, but not sure, they can be tested with Ohm meter).
