Volkswagen Maggiolino - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Maggiolino MK 1 - Years 1938-1980
Part: Gearbox
Operation: Replacement gear cable bushing

Start by disassembling the seats and the central tunnel cover to facilitate access to the gear lever, obviously also removing the cover from the lever itself; at this point the fixing pins of the gear lever support are visible and must be unscrewed: in this way it is possible to remove the gear lever and access the seat of the gear cable guide bush.
