Hello,
I understand all answers are probably on other forums but I posted a pic im trying to find out is that piece fixable or do I need a whole new shifter assembly?

 

If you took the advice given you would already know.

 

All the answers are on this forum Rick posted the link to the part you need in post #5 you don't need to replace the whole assembly.

 

Thank u very much!

Theres really no need to be nasty ir rude, not all of us are experts thats why we come here

 

You sure tale a lot of telling the same thing... that's VERY unusual, just about unique. Maybe you didn't realise but it looked like you were ignoring the answers, even though they told you what you asked.

Redbull can make some people rather impatient. Parking on an incline can also cause their avatar picture to appear as though they themselves are reclined.

It all makes sense now.

 

Ah I think ive made a very bad impression lol cant blame thevredbull though!!!!

My confusion came in because u were all kind enough to tell me the part but than auto mechanic's were saying no u need a whole new assembly

I guess being paniced n redbulled up wasnt helping, or the fact im a girl n overpanic instead of rationally thinking.

Now ive ordered the part n found a site with step by step instructions, V8 wouod u say this is an at home fix or a must 4 the machanic

 

Quite easy DIY, I think - but I've the later car and it doesn't have the problem.

There are posts about taking the centre (center) console apart and so on...

 

Do a search on YouTube as well as on this forum. Lots of folks post How-To's to YT. I've seen at least one that show's how to remove the console for my '03. Perhaps there's one posted for your car too.

 

Thank u guys, I found a site with step by step directions n pics so hopefully ill be good if not I have a mechanic ready to go.

The info was extremely helpful thank u, I almost got suckered into buying a whole new console n 5 hours so labor.

Have a good day guys

 

Good luck with the fix!
