Gear Selector plate

[landroverkeith]

afternoon all, just wondering if anyone knows how to repair the selector plate for a td5?

The Gearstick doesn`t return to its correct position for neutral it sits over to the left so I'm assuming its the plate what i wondered was is it a bolt on  part i can buy or is it sumthing that needs a nice man with a welder to have a go at?

Cheers Keith

hi keith i wouldnt say its the plate i would say its the detent  ( ? the part name ? spring ) as if it was the plate it would have the symptoms of not being able to select one of the gears

Its been a bit ropey selecting 3rd for a while Brian thats why I thought of the plate my 300 did it once funnyly enough I know I know its hard to beleave that my 300 broke down  [-o<

whats involved with getting to the spring then m8 do ya know?

Easiest way is to remove the centre console Keith.
