    The only issue is being Stronic you are limited to what Audi makes unlike manual transmissions.
    So off I went and done lots and lots of research and came up short all I really found was the later model S4 one which requires you to heat up the plastic selector and rotate it 90 degrees which I didn't fancy doing in case it went wrong.
    Then I decided to order a couple of similar later model ones from an a6 2015 and a q7 and see if they fit.
    That gets us to where we are today in the video, this is a straight swap, fits perfectly without having to cut, adapt or change anything and can be reversed at any time.
    Part number for new shift knob - 8K2713139S
    can be found on facelift a4 / a5 / q5 models.
    Used on ebay

    New On eBay RHD

    I purchased it from eBay used for £40 delivered.

    mine was spring loaded stuck in...i took an old wiper blade and used the strong metal part of the inserts (there are 2 metal strips on each side of the wiper blade insert on most cars) i made a hook tool out of it to reach in and hook and grab the inside part of the button to pull it out...worked great. thx for video !!!

    Hi there!
    I've seen your video a while ago, liked it and you made me want having that shift knob, I loved it right away. I agree with you, it looks soooo much more stylish than the old one.
    I couldn't take that knob out of my mind and recently I've ordered the new type, I can't wait to be delivered to change the (ugly 🤭) old one.
    Anyway, I had a look again to your tutorial to be ready for the knob exchange.
    Thank you for the clear explanations and tips; thanks to you this job looks like an easy peasy one 😉
    Great training!

    My gaiter looked like it was chewed by the dog after 10 years in the California sun. I bought one like yours from a wrecker and could not figure out how to get the button out. I even ran a borescope inside to see what's doin, and there were more bits than a Swiss watch. So I used compressed air to blow it out and put a ty-wrap on it. I like your Mylar tape method better. You video was full and complete. Good show.

    This video is how I figured out my current shift knob was an aftermarket. I only changed the sleeve out and I still don't know how I got it back together correctly. I had to use a couple of tiny screwdrivers to pry the button out but that part wasn't bad. It was figuring out how to put it back together with the leather clamped the right way that was a pain.

I want to change my seats, to some S Line seats with Alcantara leather and a new S Line steering wheel, again, because the 2011-2012 steering wheel looks ugly (this is only my personal opinion)

    • @TheParrottBros

    Hey mate, I'm looking forward o do something similar to my b6 A4 but I'm pretty knew to all of this stuff. Did you just replace the stock shift knob with the new one or was the old one already a modified shift knob? Sorry if that didn't make sense haha

      @TheParrottBros  Před 3 lety +1

      The fitment on all the gear knobs is usually very similar. I removed the factory fitted one and replaced it with a later model car one as they use the same fitment
