Shifter button flying...

When the Gen1 shifter button goes shooting out and ends up on the floor mat by the drivers door, does that mean:

1. Order a new button?

or

2. Order a new shifter assembly?


I went to put the car in Park and got a thumb full of hole and spring! That was after a 1 hour highway cruise that had the CE light flashing on and off like a Christmas tree. But, that would be the story for another post, after I check what code has been thrown...

Thanks in advance,

Jon

I have heard of it, but not had it happen to me. My manual(s) show no parts breakdown of the shifter except for the O/D switch, so I can't help. ::uh::

Try a local dealer for a parts breakdown of the shifter. You may be able to just buy the shifter button?

The button flew out of my shifter handle. I placed the button back in the hole and when I got home removed the handle and took the spring out of the top of the handle. I put everything back together without the spring and never had any more problems. I kept forgetting to order a new knob.

You can probably use some kind of aftermarket shift knob or shifter on it. It might be tough to find one that isn't ricey and looks good though.
