Hi All, I have a 67 1300 bug with a rattle in the gear stick when in gear. I move the stick and it ill stop for a short while then come back .
I have fitted the plastic front gear bushing , then replaced it with the brass bushing that I purchased online with tool to fit .
It did stop the noise for a short while but the noise came back after a few weeks .
Any idea of a solution that I may have missed??
thanks Graeme
How is the gearbox rubber nose mount?
I read it on samba, so it must be correct.
Sometimes Volkswagen dealers sell spare parts. Amazing isn't it!😂
Not sure ? Could this be a cause of it is worn? I will check this though. Thanks
do you have the rubber cover tightly over the base, not cracked ? check JustKampers pics
want any vw bits old but like me, Made in Germany!!!
Is the lower gear selector plate under gear shifter in correct position
And if the front gearbox mount is gone you will have to pull the motor to change so also replace the rear or banana mounts as well
A rattle appeared on my sons bug, took me a while to find it. The seat belt bolts were touching the shift rod
so shrrten the bolts or place spacer (washers) under them (for Learners in Dubbing)
