W202 wobbly manual shifter

[thephatmaster]

Hi all,

Have a loose manual gear shifter. It wobbles fore and aft quite a bit.

I've replaced all six linkage bushings and it's the same.

Before I start in things inside the car - is there something inside the black plastic covered mechanism which could be worn?

Kind regards

Steve

I've got one you can pillage for the bits required - before it sadly gets sent for recycling.

Thanks,

Looking at diagrams, I'm scratching my head about what part could be worn.

Perhaps part of no.11 in the attached?
