I might be beneficial to set up a fitting thread for the mechanically challenged amongst us

Excellent idea- yes please!

Also does anyone know/think replacing this shift bushing will alter how the gearshift coupler is set up, hope not because it took me bloomin ages and a lot of swearing to get mine spot on

Cheers

The good news is that there is no need to upset the rear linkage connection, although it is a little tight to get the allen key to remove the grub screw on the cup under the gear stick.


Less than an hour to remove centre console, carpet, gear shift assembly, linkage 'cup' holder, replace bush, reassemble and test drive.

The only downside was that following my MOT tester breaking my 3D printed driver's side cup holder, I accidentally leant on the passenger one.


Maybe time to buy an aluminium one.
