Any way to bypass stepping on brake to shift from N to D?
 
I know it's a pretty minor ask, but I really like when I can sit at a light in Neutral and then simply pull the shifter down into Drive without needing to depress the brake pedal.

Just push the button on the shifter and move it to Drive.

Lol. That's the goal. However, you must first depress the brake pedal to disengage the shifting lock (forgive my lack of the correct verbage).
As a long time manual user and owner of multiple auto cars that allow it, I'm just wondering if there is a code or hack that will allow it on this vehicle.

Mine works without pressing the brake.

I think it will do it if you have the handbrake on?

I can defo shift from N to D without touching the brake. Just trying to think of the specific conditions....

..... goes outside to test... Haha
