    Thanks Coach. Great video. I just fixed my 2004 Titan Shift Cable with the same problem, but I wanted to tell the readers about BushingFix.com. No need to buy the whole shifter cable, just go to BushingFix.com and the part costs about $25. the kit includes a tiny backing plate to help push the bushing onto the cable, and even includes a tiny plastic tube of grease for the pivot pin. Very cool little product. They have the proper bushing for all kinds of cars and trucks. Also, on a 2004 Titan, and probably most other Titans, if you take off the plastic knee guard (2 screws), and take off the small metal plate behind it (4 small bolts, and 2 small grounding straps), you can put on the bushing in about 2 minutes without breaking your back trying to get up underneath the steering wheel.

    Hey Jack,
    Same thing happen to my 2012 Titan! Went underneath checked it out and behold Shift Cable popped out but my Bushing plastic was still there so I just popped it back in! I appreciate your video and everyone that commented. I can imagine a mechanic taking advantage of someone cuz of this issue. Thank God for UA-cam!!!

    Go to advance auto parts and buy the bushing there. It costs 10.00, you will need to remove the bottom dash and the metal plate to do the work. In total is 6 screws. No big deal.. gl to all that has this problem. This video helped me to find the solution.. ty ty..

    I had the same thing happen and was able to open the shifter console and shift it by hand and buy one at auto zone for 6.00 and replace it.

    Jack thanks for the video. Did you find out how much the dealer wanted to replace the whole cable?

    • @coachjack8618
      @coachjack8618  6 років тому

      Thanks for watching! The Nissan dealership quoted me approximately $247 because the entire cable runs through the dash to underneath the hood.

    • @chunker6455
      @chunker6455 6 років тому

      This is hard to admit but I got taken to the cleaners with another shop, not the dealer, it was $700 to replace the whole cable. It pays not to panic and run to have something done. without watching youtube, thanks

    I know you're already solved your problem but next time you can buy those bushings at parts stores they have little racks of miscellaneous bolts and nuts and and all kinds of little fittings and shit probably about $3.99. And if your catalytic converters aren't clogged and you'd know because your car would be running like crap I wouldn't replace those cats either. I'm not a mechanic I'm just broke most of the time.
