Sharan Gear Selection problem

[fogyfog]

Ive had gear selection problems for over a year, stiff 2nd gear and then not fully engaging in 2nd & reverse. I thought it might be the bearings on the linkage but when i checked the cables going to the gear lever one was bent, this i sraightened and adjusted cables as per. Haynes manual.Problem is now solved, just wish i had checked cable adjustment ages ago.But you never think its going to be that easy lol

thread revival...

right we just bought one of these last week to use as a daily and for the upcoming summer holidays.
we've had the problem today where it would select 1st and second but wouldn't come across the gate to select any other gears.
I took the cable off the box and was able to move the box across the gate easily from under the bonnet.
when the cable was off the shifter would move as well.

Ive put the cable back on and were able to select gears give it 5th and reverse side you need to have a second shot at getting it over to that side of the gate.

as far as I can tell there is a serious amount of play at the bottom of the gear shift. the white ball is about ready to pop out!!

Im thinking on ordering parts 9 and 15 do you think this will help?
