Manual Transmission Stuck In 3rd Gear

I've been scouring the forums for an answer to this...

I first used manual transmission for the drag events during chapter 3 when I found that the acceleration in manual transmission is almost like a stutter, on and off on and off, all by itself, with no input on the controller or keyboard. I also can't shift, I am stuck in 3rd gear no matter what I do. I've tried repairing files, I've tried disconnecting all input devices, and nothing is working. I can't progress with this issue. If anyone knows ANYTHING or has had a similar issue. PLEASE.

Also, EA, don't link me to another forum, I've seen them already and nothing has worked.

    I've had this issue for a week now and nobody has helped me. The manual transmission in ANY CAR is stuck in 3rd gear no matter what I do. I can't shift up or down. I have tried repairing, reinstalling, clearing cache, and doing all the hail mary things that EA support told me to do (Update drivers, no luck. Safe reboot, no luck. Windows update, no luck. If this is a bug in the game which it seems to be, will it be fixed or am I stuck with it since NFS Heat is the main priority now, or is there ANY FIX FOR THIS.



    PLEASE 

    HELP

    Are you using a wheel controller, maybe with an H-pattern shifter or handbrake?

    Try disconnecting all non-essential USB devices and retry, thanks.
