ronnie_rotten Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 ok. next issue. my near perfect girlfiend has an issue with my floppy stick. that is to say it only pulls one way, so i'm guessing a spring or something that should place it bang in the middle when in neutral is worn, snapped or missing? what's the likely diagnosis? got a part number or a proper name for what i seek? oh, we're talking r380 here, you mucky minded individuals.

ches Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 sounds like the bias plate needs replacing possibly a spring.the upright part of the plate shears off. http://www.brit-car.co.uk/product.php?xSearch=&xProd=86343¤cy=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnie_rotten Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 ok, so that would give the effect of always needing to push a little to the right to smoothly engage or disengage? it's a cheap enough part, so i guess i have to remove almost the entire centre console and gearbox tunnel to get at it?
