I was poking around under my car and noticed the firewall shift bushing was not only damaged, but was not even mounted and just hanging on the shift rod. The car seems to shift normally except for grinding going into 2nd at close to 30mph, so I just don't do that. I assume the 2nd gear grinding is a syncro issue though. Here are my questions.
1) Is there any way to inspect the other bushings or should I asume they are all worn? I took a look at the other bushings and they looked okay visually. 2) The bushings referred to in question #1 are the 2 coupler bushings, the rear shift bushing, and ball bushing. Am I missing any? 3) If I stay with plastic bushings, is the Pelican kit the best source? Are the parts from a Porsche dealer made to a higher tolerance or are they just more expensive? |
