1800 gearstick rattle
My car has again developed a vibration rattle via the gearstick when fast cruising in 4th or overdrive. By holding the stick the noise disappears.
I had this last year, and it was resolved by replacing the gearstick gasket and bush. I have driven approx 3,000 miles since the last fix and the noise has now crept back. Have others had this niggling minor issue? |

Yes I've had this and been stuck on a motorway journey with my left leg applying pressure to the gearstick to stop it from driving me nuts! Only seems to happen at certain rev ranges.
Don't know what to suggest to fix your situation as renewing the bush sorted mine. Is it possible that the bush has popped out? Check that and if still not sorted, contact me as I think I have spare box here or at least so parts you could swap to find out what the problem is. Regards, Gordon |
