Gear Knob Removal

A simple and pos quite a dumb question but how to you remove the gear knob from a pug 106. I can remove (well rollup at least) the gater from the console but thats it, any help would be great.

thanks Gav

I too would like some help on this matter.

Here is some info I've gathered up for you guys:

Take a torx screwdriver (star shaped head with 6 points). Lift the rubber gaiter at the bottom closest to the handbrake. This will reveal a gold torx screw. Undoing this will release the gaiter along with the centre console.
Now to remove the gear knob. Pull the gaiter up so it covers the gear knob (this helps with grip!), and twist it anti-clockwise. This will require an amount of force, but once it starts moving it will move quicker. You only need to twist it into 90 degrees anti-clockwise. Once it twists up to 90 degrees anti-clockwise, lift the gear knob off the shaft.

Hope this helps...

Worked great thanks.

You're welcome.

Have done the above and there is a white plastic object on the top of the shaft, is there neway to remove? As im trying to put on a new shaft cover.

Cheers
