How to Remove the Gear Knob from Citroen Xsara Picasso

Model: Citroen Xsara Picasso MK 1 - Years 1999-2012
Part: Transmission

The video describes how to remove the gear knob from the Citroen Xsara Picasso. This is a simple task that does not require special skills. First, lower the cover of the gear lever gently to avoid damaging the leather. Once the lever is exposed, pull the gear knob firmly until it comes off. Now the lever is free, and you can fit a new knob. It is important during reassembly that the collar of the lever cover aligns with the knob lock to prevent the cover from shifting.
