Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra J - Years 2009-2016
Part: Gear Shift Knob
Operation: How to replace the gear knob in the Opel Astra?

In this tutorial, we can see how to replace the gear knob in the Opel Astra, an extremely simple and fast operation. First of all, let's go inside the cabin, then using a preferably plastic spatula to avoid leaving any marks, we detach the base of the boot from the central tunnel. Next, we release the blue plastic ring using a flat-tip screwdriver, grip the knob and separate it from the shaft by pulling it upwards. At this point, we can position the replacement and install it by simply following the reverse procedure.

Disassembly of the gear knob on the Lancia Ypsilon 2

Today we will see, in this video tutorial, how to remove and replace the gear knob on the second series Lancia Ypsilon, but also on the Lancia Musa, in simple and quick steps. We get inside the car and start by removing the old gear knob; to do this, just unscrew it anticlockwise, as shown in the video. At this point we also remove the gearshift gaiter, in order to replace, if necessary, it too; we just have to fix the new headset and insert the new gear knob, screwing it correctly and without creating play on the gear lever!
