The Peugeot gearstick may be floppy, but it still selects gears. The problem most likely stems from a loose shift mechanism. Levers and cables are linked to the gearstick, transferring its motion to the transmission’s internal workings. Over time, this can cause looseness in the pivot or linkages that link the gearstick to the transmission. This article will discuss some possible causes and solutions to this problem.
Problems with a sloppiness in a gear stick
A sloppiness in the gear stick can affect the transmission. While it may look like the shifter has come loose, it is actually the shifting mechanism. The Peugeot gear stick is linked to the transmission through cables and levers, which transmit the motion of the stick to the transmission’s internal workings. As a result, the linkages or pivot of the stick can become loose over time.
Causes
When your Peugeot gearstick stops selecting gears, it may be a symptom of a faulty shift mechanism. Usually linked to the gearbox by cables or levers, it transfers its motion to the transmission’s internal workings. Over time, however, looseness can occur in the pivot and linkages, causing the gearstick to hang. However, if the issue persists for a prolonged period of time, it may be a sign of a larger problem.
