Automatic shifter movement right/left, normal?

Op Just checked mine for you mine is a 2016 auto with only 5000 KMs and yes it has the same play as your video approx. 5mm so I would suggest it is normal !

That play looks normal. It would be nice to see zero movement since this auto shifter doesn't have a side slot for +/- "manual" shifting (please Ford, add this to accompany the paddle shifters), but wouldn't worry about what you see in the video.

Please Ford don’t! Quicker to slam into Sport by just pulling straight back.

I wouldn't want them to give up sport - sport is different than +/- mode, as it changes shift points.

I'd like to see:

P
R
N
D -> +/-
S

I'm currently driving a car in this configuration, and it's nice to bump the stick to the right and shift with either the stick or paddles (actually quite fun with a 6spd dual clutch).
