The gear knob, especially on the manual gearbox, inevitably wears over the years and use of the vehicle; it may fade and even crack. Fortunately, the problem is easily resolved, as it is sufficient to purchase a replacement knob at a very reasonable price and replace it yourself in a few minutes, as shown in the video posted here.

Essentially, grasp the old knob firmly and pull it upwards with force, installing the new one in its place, positioned on the shaft and pressed down.
