Replacement of Gear Lever Gaiter

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa C - Years 2000-2006
Part: Shift knob

The gaiter covering the gear lever is generally made of synthetic leather and tends to deteriorate over time; replacing it is very simple. Just unclip the frame at the base of the gaiter, fold it upwards, and remove the plastic clip that secures it just below the gear knob. Then free the frame at the base of the gaiter and fit the new one by inserting the lower flap into the groove along the edges. Insert the new gaiter onto the gear lever upside down, secure it under the knob by pulling the clip, and roll it down, attaching the frame to the base of the centre tunnel.

This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
