Replacing the gear knob on an Audi A3? First, detach the leather gaiter frame using a plastic lever: lift it to expose the knob (remove the securing clip). Grasp the knob and rotate it left and right until it comes off the gear stick.

Once the old knob is removed, take the new one and slide it onto the stick in the centre console, securing it in place. Finally, test the movement of the stick in the centre console to ensure the knob is fitted correctly.

Use a knob of the same size and fitting.
