with a wobbling gear lever even when it's in gear.

 

I had this so decided to change the gear lever bushes. I found an article on TT.net saying it would only take about 45 mins max.

 

Fook me.... 4 and a half bl**dy hours I was out there in the snow. My hands are still bleeding as I type and I still can't feel my toes :mad:

 

But at least my gear shift is nice and stiff now (oo-er).

 

So if anyone is thinking of doing this to their car to make the gear change nice and stiff. I say Don't even bother !!!

Dont think I will bother. My knob is nice a firm anyway.

 

Gear knob that it. Ooo Err! ;)

oh I also forgot to say, the dam thing didn;t even need new bushes. The previous owner decided that putting the nut back on the bolt was too hard so he left it off.

 

What an idiot, that's the reason every gear felt like neutral.

Good on you for getting out there in the freezing cold and sorting it!!

Me,well I'd have just dropped a viagra into the gearbox!!

Cheers,

F.T.
