What This Product Does
The bracket is part of the manual transmission-control assembly beneath the gear lever. It houses and positions the lever mechanism so driver input can be passed to the gearbox through the selector cables while maintaining the required operating geometry.
Functions
- Holds the manual gear-lever assembly in its intended position
- Provides the ball housing used by the lever mechanism
- Links gear-lever movement with the cable-operated selector system
- Maintains the alignment required for consistent gear selection
Technical Details
- Part number: 99742401000
- Gearshift bracket and ball housing – gearshift lever
- For applicable manual transmission-control assemblies
- Equipment references include I480, I481 and PR:480
- Quantity specified in the relevant diagrams: 1
Symptoms of Fault
- Noticeable free play or unwanted movement at the gear lever
- Loose, vague or irregular selection across several gears
- Difficulty guiding the lever into the correct shift gate
- Rattling from the gear-lever housing or centre-console area
- Stiff or notchy operation associated with wear or incorrect alignment
Why Replacement Matters
Damage or wear within the bracket can allow the lever mechanism to move out of its correct position, reducing shift accuracy and changing the feel of the controls. Renewing the housing can re-establish proper support and alignment. Similar symptoms may also arise from worn selector cables, bushes, transmission mounts, clutch faults or internal gearbox wear, so these areas should be inspected during diagnosis.
FAQs
- Does this bracket fit PDK or automatic transmissions?
No. The supplied applications relate to manual transmission-control systems. - Is the gear knob or selector cable included?
No. This is the gearshift bracket or ball housing within the lever mechanism. Knobs, cables, nuts and other associated parts are separate components. - Will replacing this part cure every gear-selection problem?
No. The clutch, cables, bushes, mounts and gearbox should also be checked because faults in these areas can create similar symptoms. - Does it fit cars with the factory short-shift option?
Applications marked PR:XCZ are excluded where specified. Confirm the vehicle option codes before ordering.
