rvrboy 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2008 Hi, I need some help, the T-handle om my auto shift came off the gear selector when I pulled up in the garage tonight, as I moved it forward into Park. I had noticed in town that it was turning about a 1/4 turn when selecting a gear. It's a 1986 e30 318i As I looked at the handle in my hand I saw a white nylon(plastic ) rod sticking out of the hollow selector shaft, and as I tried to get a hold of it it fell back down the shaft. I put the handle back on, but cant get it out of park. I cant find the pin or screw that hold the handle on, but will have a better look tomorrow. Is it just a case of putting a pin thru the hole to locate the selector lock lifter. Cheers for any help Gerry Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katalyst 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2008 dont even really need the pin/grub screw, fish the white nylon thingee out, then pull the button down and inside youll see the pin of the button inside hole where the shaft goes slide the nylon white rod up and slide onto that rod and that should be it put it back on and away you go!!
