Colt CZT Project **Gear Selector Pin**

Mitsubishi Colt CZT Project
Technically not my car, but my friend Danny's
I think all models and variants of the Mk6 Colt suffer from issues with the gear stick not centring. Gear changes become stiff and a struggle to select gears.
In this video we replace the pin on top of the gear box with a repair pin also sold for the BMW Mini R50 getrag gearbox.

Hi! Nice video. Im fixed with you guide. The only difference is that: im put a Stainless Steel Hex Socket Head Cap Screw inside the pin. Than i put on this a self locking hexagonal nut. Cuz the screw at my country costs 20Huf and the Mini cooper pin 5000huf. And its just works fine. 😊

Thanks guys. Just finished doing this. Video was a great help and didnt damage the gear selector bushes thankfully.

very good infomation on this common problem, i done this repair about 2 years ago and it still feels like new

[@hoodedreeper]

Thank you :) I know its old knowledge to most but I wanted to share my own walk through. It's made such a big difference to his car

This is going to help me tremendously, i just imported a Ralliart Version R with basically the same platform and engine/gearbox as a CZT and it has that exact issue.

I my case this part works well and the shifter knob centers without problems. My problem is with the little black plastic bushing that slides on and lifts the shaft, it's crooked and it gives me a hard time finding the Gears sometimes... What to do in this case? Does it worth having it custom machined, or better to just get the whole thing from scrap parts?

[@hoodedreeper]

I'm unsure about this particular issue. You may be best to find another shifter assembly from a breakers yard

Ich suche den Busha, um ihn zu kaufen, aber ich kann ihn nicht finden

[@OmarKhaleefah-mx4rr]

I'm looking for the bush but I can't find it

[@hoodedreeper]

The pin that is replaced in the video? If so the eBay link is in the description.
If you mean the bushes on the end of the shifter cables, I think someone on the CTOG facebook group found a peugeot bush that kind of fitted. If not you need to replace the whole shifter cable

Very nice video, thanks, m8.
Could you write the pin part number for me, I think I need to also change it on my Colt.
Thank you

Hi, Could you please share and the link for the Bush as I manage to damage mine as well😁🤭

[@pedronunes4246]

Can you do a video when you fix the gear cable bush? I have mine with zip ties as well. When i drive aggressively it pops.

[@hoodedreeper]

I haven't found a solution yet, as far as I'm aware you have to replace the shifter cables to fix it

[@Mbenzolovers]

@@hoodedreeper Ive heard bearings from like a skateboard or somtething works

[@pazoneill8907]

i have a r52 mini same issue but trying to get the unit from the engine out is a pain how did you do it in the end

[@hoodedreeper]

From memory once all of the bolts were removed we prised it out

[@gregansen544]

Um, is the central console's carbon-fibre vertical/inlay (the lighter panel) stock in that car? Where to get it?

[@hoodedreeper]

Danny vinyl wrapped it himself :)

[@roka9323]

where can you buy the pin?

[@hoodedreeper]

Its available on eBay

[@ItsSavvaz]

Can you tell us the product code of the pin to search it?
