Hello:
I have some play (about 1.5 cm) in the shift lever (automatic transmission) in the driver cabin. It used to nice and tight when I shift. I checked the shift lever bushing under the car on the shift lever and the rod connecting it to tranny box, it is in place and in good condition. I had replaced it about 20k miles ago. They usually last for 75k miles.
Now, is there another bushing (on the top side of the shift lever) accessible from inside the driver cabin which is broken and hence the play in the shift lever? From inside the driver cabin, I see a boot covering the bottom part of the cabin shift lever so dirt doesn't fall in. Is this where another bushing is? If not, what could be the reason for the play?
Thank you for your help,
Arv.
