Please note that since Brexit (1st January) customs charges are now applicable on all orders going to the EU and these charges are payable by the buyer. Any orders where customs charges are refused are not guaranteed to be refunded.

SYMPTOMS OF FAULT

Sloppy gear changes, loose feeling gear shift, difficulty getting into gears especially reverse and first. Gears feel like they have shifted over to the left so that 3 & 4 are where 1 & 2 normally sit. Wobbly / loose gear stick.

THE FAULT

A bush within the gear stick assembly wears causing shifting issues.

Within the OEM gear stick shift mechanism is a poor-quality Nylon bush, a ball at the bottom of the shift stick operates within this bush, this is a tight friction fit, the Nylon being of poor-quality wears away, allowing excess movement; causing the faults noted above. The solution until now was to replace the whole gear shift unit, not only is this expensive but it would inevitably fail again.
