How to Remove the Gear Knob from a Peugeot 206

Model: Peugeot 206 MK 1 - Years 1998-2012
Part: Shift knob

Is the gear knob on your Peugeot 206 damaged? Here’s how to remove it from the shaft. Grip the knob and rotate it left and right until it comes off the gear lever. Use a plastic lever to detach the trim of the leather gaiter if you need to replace it. Fit the new leather gaiter with clips (if removed), then take the new knob and slide it onto the shaft in the centre console: tighten the new knob until it locks onto the shaft. Finally, test the movement of the shaft in the centre console to ensure the knob is properly fitted. Position the knob with the numbers horizontal.
