umm...search.......but didnt find any thing on how to take it apart......i was trying to unscrew it..but didnt want to force it....and it didnt seemt o want to come off...just looking for sum help...


thanks in advance

 

did u try some WD-40 and then turn it?

 

Force it. The **** unscrews counter-clockwise when looking down at it. The trick is getting it line up correctly when you go to put it back on. No matter how many times I unthread it and try to start it again, it always ends up with the numbers pointing toward the passenger seat instead of straight ahead.

 

remember, Lefty loosey, righty tighty.

 

its cause of the thing right under the shift **** when you go to put it back on once you get the **** to where you want it you screw that thing back up to the **** . i'm talking bout what the shift ties to under the shift ****.

 

OHH!!>..so thats y...lol....its backwards?....

usall for nething screwy..its right-loose and left tight?....right...when ur looking down at it...lol....maybe i l get it now..i was always tightne it then=.=

 

this person speaks the truth
listen to him and your **** shall come out

 

what? i swear almost everything that screws screws right to tighten and left to loosen.

 

lol...hes telling me how to take it out?

 

Almost everything is righty tighty and leftly loosy. You got everything backwards man.

 

maybe you should get a brand new honda civic, i hear you wont have to unscrew anything on those for a long time.

 

remember, Lefty loosey, righty tighty.

i think i totally confused him by saying that.

 

Na man, damn near everything on the planet is lefty-loosy (looking down at the shift ****, rotate it left is loosening it) and righty tighty (rotating it right, or clockwise, is tightening it).

 

it has a nut under the ****
you have to loosen that nut before you can take hte **** out

 

That nut is only on S4s, S5s just have the **** screw onto the shifter with no jamnut.

 

doesnt he have a s4?
or is his akina86 name just a takumi wanna-be?

 

its not rocket science

 

lol.its not...yea....i did confuse myself....i do have a s5...and i tried forcing it...but the thing wouldnt budge.....lol....just wanted to make sure that thats the way to remove it.....i dunt wan to **** up nething else....as its fucked up enoguh already=.=

 

Start lifting weights.

 

hrmm what is this nut you people speak of on the S4 also if I somehow dont have that could that be reason it rattles all the time upon acceleration??

---and Im pretty sure I dont have a nut there cause I have taken off my shift **** countless times out of anger and then put it back on when my hand hurt from shifting without it....

quick simple related question, not a thread jack =)

 

seriously, takes all of about 2 seconds to take off, i've taken off several so i know it cant just be "your car"

 

hhhahaha....whoops
put a bit more force on it today..and came off ezx-ly........well just wanted to make sure....thanks=)
