Mine looks a bit like that.
My gearknob doesn't though.
-
Shame about the dints, but nice knob mate.
Oeerrr mrs, cover the budgie.
-
Maybe I should have called the thread something else :laugh:
Topher, I expected as much :grin: Maybe you should take a visit to your GP :laugh:
-
I've not looked that closely, but mine feels crinkly.
-
Looks like you've been handling it over-enthusiastically - any problems with your vision recently? :grin:
-
I'd put some cream on that, or natural yoghurt!
Seriously now, I'd get it swapped out.

Very light use so far as it's new and I don't want to break it :laugh: Who said that?? :shocked:
-
Mine's not crinkly - but that's because mine has a mind of its own (oo..err again!) DSG :wink:
-
i forgot to tell you i had checked mine, its a little crinckled but not like yours, i guess when you consider they are wrapped around a ball they will crinckle a little, see what they say though, and see what new knob looks like
-
Thanks mate,
Im off to the stealer now so I'll see if they have any other ED30's there and compare. Cheers :smiley:
-
if it helps i will post a picture of mine later

The dealer agreed it wasn't right and I should have a new knob in my hands in a few days (never thought I'd say that :laugh:)
Must thank everyone for their 'constructive' input :grin:

Mine looks nothing like that....yours looks like it's got leather wrapped round it? Mine has dimples on it but is just a plastic golf ball style.
-
i checked mine last night and its not crinkled like that, i has very minor crinkles, but nothing like that
-
I thought the ED30 had the golfball style gear knob?
-
it does, as in the pic above
-
Golfgirl, Is yous DSG? I've looked at a couple of those and as the 'knob' itself is bigger it is alot smoother.
I'll post some pics of the new one when fitted.
-
mines a tad like that, not as bad, btu yes, it bugs me, cant see vw doing anything about it tho. i have seen the knobs on ebay if u wanna replace it urself :p
-

this is the DSG knob, even this looks leather ?

No, mine's a manual.

I still can't understand why the pics posted (of the manual knob and the above DSG knob) look like they're wrapped in leather when mine is quite clearly plastic.
I'm going out in a bit so will have a real close up look then just to double check.
-
i didnt think u had a gti?
-
Ohh golf girl just noticed you got a pic I took as your sig!

Well I've been out and inspected my knob :nerd: It turns out that it IS leather despite me thinking otherwise but there's no wrinkles on it so there's plenty of life left in it!
Ohh golf girl just noticed you got a pic I took as your sig!
Yeh, I thought it was a pretty cool pic - hope you don't mind :wink:

Me? Yes I've got an Edition 30 as in my sig.

It must be those soft hands :grin:
