Hey all,

This place is fantastic, first off. Glad I found it. Fun to just sit and read through it all.

My first question (probably of many) is... I have a 2003 S60 2.4T. I've recently noticed that the (automatic) gear shifter doesn't want to stay locked
in place. What I mean is, it slips over to (semi) manual shift almost on accident. In fact, just a light tap of the finger gets it over to S-A. So, you can imagine
that occasionally, this causes problems. I'm winding out going 30 MPH, only to look down and realize my shifter has slipped to the left into S-A mode.

Wondering if anyone else has run across this?

Thanks in advance!

 

There is a plastic piece on the top of the shifter assembly just under the cover around the shifter shaft.
I have fixed one of them the other customers declined the repair.

 

Thanks Tech.

Is it a special-order replacement part? How much do you think my Volvo repair guy will (should) charge for the repair, or could I do it myself, you think?

 

You might be able to do it your self.
We had to order the one I did. Here is a parts listing pic of it.
You will need #17 the part # is 9463599

 

The image isn't showing up, but thanks for the part number. I can at least take the part in to my repair guy, who would likely have to
order it. (Provided I can't figure it out.)

 

Works for me let me try again.
