Gear lever position

[Godzilla]

Under the gaiter is the white ball joint supposed to be positioned so it faces straight up, only asking as mine points to the right off center ,and I'm thinking this is wrong , can someone check there R for me thanks

 

[Godzilla]

Can noboby just pop to there car and have a look would really appreciate it ,

 

[geoff pine]

Yes it faces straight up.

Il put a pic up in a mo see if it's wrong below pics of it in neutral (see how the stick points right) if i move it to right to go into 5th or reverse and let go it will stick for a few seconds on its own before springing back

 

[Godzilla]

this is the spring under the lever/linakage is it supposed to be in two bits tie wraped together ,

 

[geoff pine]

NO. another botched job
I have one its not new but its ok there only a couple of pounds from nissan.

 

[Godzilla]

will this be giving me problems then , also what do you think to the possition of the gear leaver thats wrong surely

 

[geoff pine]

When the spring went on my primera it was difficult to select gears as it never centralised its self when it was in neutral . On the second photo it looks like its leaning to the drivers side ! mine sits in the middle .

 

[Godzilla]

yeah its leaning to the drivers side, when its difficult to shift it feels like its half in then i have to really push till it clicks in or keep trying two or three times until it fits ok ,but it really does feel like its a problem to do with that area when ur trying to shift,as if its somehow holding back from engaging

 

[GTiR-Aholic]

ahhh that's what must be the problem with mine too then!

The gear stick on mine just slacks to the far left.

 

[Godzilla]

what are your symptoms same as mine ,
