T4 Gear Stick Boot Keeps Popping Up

[GypsyWannabe]

Hi,

Is there any secret to keeping a T4 gear stick boot on the floor? Mine keeps popping up. Sometimes it can go weeks without popping up and then it will juts keep popping up all the time.

Thanks,

Baz

Hi guys,

Sorry for the delay in replying. I have been busy with a new job and have not logged on for ages or had time to work on my van.

Yes, there are two clips inside the boot that you have to line up with the appropriate holes. I seemed to be able to get the boot to stay down for reasonable periods but then it would pop up again, often after reversing! It makes things a lot noisier.

However, I persevered and think I have got the clips in securely now. I have not had the problem for weeks. And now I've fixed the squealing fan belt and replaced the starter motor, I am happy to stick with the T4 for a while and am not in such of a rush to go back to a Bay!

Cheers,

Baz
