Hi, I'm hoping that someone has a fix for a gear knob that comes off in your hand when selecting reverse!

It doesn't do it all the time, but it keeps on working loose.

The feeble plastic nut / locking collar is next to useless and I have added a jubilee clip to remedy the problem, but it's less than ideal. I'm loathed to result to glue... would rather fix the problem or replace.. but all the replacements are Ping Pong specials with plastic collars for the fixing..

It doesn't inspire confidence!

Any recommendations??
 
This is a first. Buy a new knob.
