Omega General Help / Re: Broken manual gearstick

« on: 18 June 2022, 19:52:00 »

Can you replace the coller without taking the whole assembly off the car ?

I am assuming can remove Gear Knob (90435927 - assuming I can find a new one !) and the fit new coller (90435930)

Or is that wishful thinking

The rubber collar is 90435930, I think. Check here:

https://vauxhall.catalogs-parts.com/#{client:1;page:part;lang:en;category:car;catalog:v94;group:h;groupsub:1;subgroup:10-0}#detail=#5

It costs around £40- £50 and seems to be available only from Singapore.

Wouldn't like to guarantee it though. Caveat Emptor and all that..

Interested to see how you get on if order as I have a similar issue

If you find it too short, and exhaust trim piece from any motor factors will solve that.

I did try to find a couple of nice short chrome ones to finish of the ends on the 3.0 one fitted to my MFL, but I struggled to find right size as the twin steel tail pipes as a bit close togther to a pair of chrome ends to fit   Unless I have not looked hard enough ?

It does. If I wasn't so opposed to sharing, I'd pop over with a few bags of Yorkshire and see if Putin would calm down a bit ..

If he wants them, I am pretty sure he will come and get them...

He needs more than a Cuppa to calm him down   :'(

Thanks for reply.

I've popped little glue and it seems to be OK at present so Ill see how it goes as it sounds doable but a faff.

Reverse goes in ok, or did when I backed her into her spot in the garage on Sunday 

Will be out in a couple of weeks with her so see how we go.

Another option is I may try a small loop of black handlebar tape.  Could hold them two bits and not notice it.  Bottom bit hold on well anyhow as I put a new proper leather gaiter on there and that hold is up nicely against the top bit 

I suppose if thats all wrong with her then I shouldn't complain 

Cheers again.
Andy

Omega General Help / Manual Gearstick Reverse selector-Plastic lifter broke in 2-Still works-Replace

Hi there.

Noticed yesterday that the little black plastic thing you pull up with fingers on my Omega is broke in the middle thin bit.  Its a Manual Transmission.

It engages reverse OK, but appears it come away in the thin but under where fingers sit to engage about a fingers thickness down the shaft - This is thin but where it then widens again before on the Gaiter boot where that then sits.

Works OK.  Can the plastic lifter thing be replaced ? Is it easy ?  Can get Original Part ?  I assume would also need a new knob as well - Again can get original one ?

Looks like it may glue OK, but wanted to see if replacement was easy and doable.

Thanks in advance.

Andy.
