bhalali Report post Posted February 4, 2011 I was driving the car hard today, shifted from 2 to 3 and the shifter snapped in half!!!! WTF!!!!! Its a 6speed manual. what should i do? i started taking it apart and i got down to the transmission but it seemed difficult to remove the entire assembly. anyone had this happen before? any adivse? at this point it broke at the threads, i took a reverse drill bit and pulled out the brokren piece would it be a good idea to weld it back? any advise would be great. thanks ben Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
deekss Report post Posted February 4, 2011 Happened to a chum of mine's Murci. Stealership wanted to sell him a new one, he kicked off and threatened to go to the press, they repaired F.O.C. Not unheard of problem at all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the shifter was made out of titanium Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
