Broken shift linkage
« on: 19 July 2015, 11:20 »
Went out in my car yesterday and my reserve gear would now only go forward and not back and add to that 1st and 3rd felt the same. The drive home was interesting to say the least.

Having a look under the bonnet it seems the plastic bit on the linkage is broken, number 3 on the picture below ;

Also if you see this very quick youtube video of a guy in America the problem he has is the exact same as mine.

Now does anyone know what the name is of the part I need? As don't really want to buy a whole new set.
