You are a legend, dealer wants $1500 for this job. But how to get the shifter back in its place?

where buy that nob

Mine is not working anymore after I did some knocking on the gear lever. Previously my gear stuck on P because of that plastic latch (forgot what it is called) to release it was broken. So the gear lever need to be knocked to release it. I put a wiping cloth on the lever when knocking it. But, somehow bits of the cloth went inside the holes inside the lever. I managed to pull it out but after that my Push Start function didn't work. So, I just have to use keys then. My keyless door lock/unlock still working though

what would be the cause of a recessed (drop down push button)...the photos of the car i'm about to get look like the button is dropped down 1/2" or so

Why not just use the whole new knob?

In my case, I couldn’t find a push start knob that was black. And the ones I found had damaged pins. I thought this would help someone going through the same thing as me 😊

@@NorVackif I have damaged pins and I wanted to get new pins. What gauge do you think these are and where should I get them? They look like plain ol soder wire
