- This is the exact process you need to follow if you have a loose gear shifter / gear selector , this process is called calibration or adjustment
if selector is not feeling tight or not proving the confidence that its in right gear , or having too much of slop or free play , this is what you need to do . easy repair
we just need to lock the gear selector lever and the gear selector fork as well before doing any kind of adjustment or calibration

This part is very cheap so just replace it, I ordered 1 x 1J0711761B which is the 8mm version where you swapped them over, I'll take it to the machine shop at work and take 1mm from the middle so it's a snug fit! the video was very helpful! Much appreciated thanks
Thnx for the helpful video!❤
In my case the three plastic
arms holding the screw were slipping due to worn threads...And 1,3,5,R Gears are not engaging at all ...Mechanic told me to change entire shifter box which costs 23k... I just watched your video and i removed it, found that only issue was that arms.. I replaced it my self, Part costed me 1300rs.... Your video was a great help and saved me 23k🙏
23k for a gearbox??? What car
Superclear and calm video! Thanks! 👌
Cracking video, saved me a small fortune due to several issues. Thank you, keep up the good work
Excellent video, this is now my next job! Many thanks
thank you it helped me save a lot of money
Perfect.............Much appreciated.
Informative video. Appreciate your efforts. 1J0711761B is 10mm diameter and 1J0711761C is 8 mm diameter.
🎉
Perfect Thank you!
Informative video bro ❤
Thanks.and Well done.
hello, i think you can clean the connectors and then fill them up with silicone from both sides, make sure the silicone connects through the middle. for lubing the shifter you better use silicone grease. regards
Too informative .. I am facing same issue
very detailed video brother keep it up
Very informative brother. Thanks a lot !
Just want to know if the cable end bushing style is rectangle or round for SKoda Laura 2012 facelift 5-MT 2.0 TDI.
In this video, polo has the round bushing.
Also is the laura’s relay level material is metal or plastic where the side - side shifter cable slots in?
Sir construction of parts gets change with time and revision , so if you want to buy then buy the latest revision of parts , as new revision usually addresses the issue with the older once
@@yourDIYneeds But will I get original shifter cable ends separately ?
Sir it comes as a set , along with new shifter mechanism
Thanks
I have replaced that but I still have the same problem
0:46 I dont have those two holes - Octavia 1 2004 1,6 MPI gerabox DUU 5gears - looking for some videos tips 3 days nothing.... Can someone help me ?
Mine is hard to get into 4th and sometimes 3rd. When driving if I manage to get it into 4th it just comes back out and I have to hold it in. Could any of the stuff in this video fix this issue
Yes , calibration is what you need sir
I have a issue recently with my polo tdi 1.2, not able to slot to first gear and second is bit struggle and rest are smooth on the move. Some local garage guy fiddled with the gear by trying too much with first and reverse. I doubt that as caused problem. What do you think the problem could be? Should I go to ASC? Thanks
Sir this video which you commented on is exactly the process you need to follow , your gear slots got out of calibration , it just needs re-aligning
@@yourDIYneeds thank you for your prompt reply!
Anytime sir
@@yourDIYneeds It worked like a charm. But I feel my gear handle is bit loose, may be its way out. Thanks Again!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Brother i have vento 1.6 petrol trendline 2012, issue is gears get stuck in between some time and some time they work properly. When they struck in between, i have to bring the lever back to neutral and release the clutch and then again shift the gear to get them work properly. I have contacted different mechanics and they have different opinions ranging from
1) Gear cables
2) Gear shifter mechanism
3) Clutch plates
What can be the reason based on your experience?
Sir it can be just adjustment of the gear cables ,
As it is i did it in the video , if your clutch is not slipping then it can't be clutch . So just perform the calibration once and then proceed
Thanks brother for ur efforts .. For quite a long time, I was trying to removing the gear lever gator to lube its underneath areas. Today also I tried in my rapid 1.5 TDI seeing the video. Pressed as u told and tried to move upwards.. but no response,,
Sir if its opening for the first time then , the clips will be tight
@@yourDIYneeds yes.. i used some amount of pressure but it won't ... I fear sometimes the leather area may tear off..I'll try after few days again as my silicon spray is over ..Need to get a fresh one... another doubt.. this time I used your video and did annual oil and filter change by myself . Thanks for your video.. when jacked up the car, i saw some oil film . The location is the RHS drive axle starting area from gear box. Just before the inner axle boot , there is a cylindrical area, at that area there is a film of oil.. any hints? Thank you..
Chances are either axle boot have a crack from which the internal grease is coming out or , just above that area , there is intercooler pipe which is very prone to leak from joints and seep oil .
I did everything like you showed it over and over and its only fine till i drive and then i dont get reverse and 1st and 5th gear and I've replace the short shifters one with the spring
Sir are the bushings in good condition ?
Hi brother I have a polo aswel, I am having a problem getting 5th gear. My reverse is normally press down and shift next to 1st .... Now my reverse is in the 1st gear section without pressing the shifter down.... so basically if I select 1st gear it's now reverse can you please assist or will this sort my issue
This will solve your issue sir
Bro, meri safari 2-3 khade rehne ke baad sabse pehle wala self Jada load le Kar ke start hoti hai, and uske baad chahe jitne self laga lo half self Mai start hoti hai, bas 2-3 din khade rehne par problem ati hai, battery just new Hai 4-5 months, kya issue starter Mai Hai, o mean kya starter problem ka koi symptom hai,,,?
sir , battery to chassis and chassis to engine grounds check kar lo ek bar , thoda sa hint mil jaega , or ek bar jab 2-3 din baad start karo to us se pehle battery ki voltage check kar lo , kahi aisa na ho ki battery drain jaldi ho rahi ho
What should I do if I have opposite problem? It feels stiff and hard to move the gear shifter
Same sir , it needs adjustment
Hi bro very informative video, while shifting from 1st to 2nd the gear gets quite hard sometimes it kinda feels like it has got stuck in 1st and after applying some force it shifts to 2nd gear and all other gears slot cleanly any idea why this is happening. Thanks
Yes sir most probably it's a calibration issue , if assuming everything else is ok with the gearbox , like lubricant and synchroniser
@@yourDIYneeds Thanks for your reply sir, even the clutch plates and everything were replaced and this problem has raised recently doesnt happen always but all of sudden once or twice after driving for long hours.
Great video. What model and year is your car?
Sir its 2014 , Volkswagen polo 1.5 Tdi
Great.........but I would like to add........don't give up after the first attempt...........the tolerances are hughe....along the threaded rod.......I had 5 goes, including not locking it in position and trying to adjust for the reverse gear I was missing..............also, if like me you find your power sterring reservoir is under the Battery box.............check it for fluid level whilst you have it stripped down.
Sir , when i did it it was perfect in the first go , all the gears were engaging as they should .
And sir it has an electrical assisted steering so it doesn't have a power steering fluid system
Mine 1.2 highline petrol. I can't fine my 5th gear.
Any idea sir?
Sir you need to calibrate the shifter , it got out of alignment
Thank you sir
what’s the correct name of this part, i would like to fix it on mine car
Gear Shifter End
Any idea where I can get gear shifter knob??
Sir OEM shifter knob comes with leather gator attached , its around 6.5k , i have shipped one for a viewer a year back . At that time it was unavailable online
@@yourDIYneeds it's expensive 12k in vw and 7k around on boodmo
Sir yes , last year i got it for 6.5k from my parts supplier
@@vinaykumar6407 did you manage to get shifter
Sir is that spring part available separately
Sir no , i arranged it from a scrapyard , a almost new car which was just 1 year old got totalled due to rollover .
@@yourDIYneeds sir can we do calibration ourselves ?
Yes sir , you can its easy
TATA SAFARI ke v Gear ke video banno g
Sure sir , next 2 videos me se ek wohi hai
Timing belt video....
soon , time hi ni mil pa raha 😅
My 2 gear is kicking out
Sir you need to follow the exact process to calibrate all the gears
This video is so unclear to me .
What did u do with the bad rubber inside that connector ? I cant see that you changed the part. Whats the purpose of taking it off if you just got it back ?
Also u didnt show how to remove the other connector.
How can u swap them if they are different diameters ?
Thanks.
Sir , i showed the process , as my parts were in transit and got late , they can't be swapped due to different sizes and i showed the process of calibration of gear shifter and lever .
this one ya?
Yes sir
Hello sir

Hindi mai bola hota bhau
May I use wd40 to lubricate the gear lever mechanism?
Sir wd40 is a penetrant and rust inhibitor but its not a good lubricant , use a dedicated lubricant spray , it will be much better
@@yourDIYneeds Alright. Thank you so much. Could you please recommend a product? Thanks
Sir there are various grease sprays available online and offline , like castrol and all , you can pick any one of them . They all are decent
@@yourDIYneeds Thank you so much for you help 😊
