Dear The Rod,

Hope you're well and stay so. I have VADIS. The transmission shift linkage bushing is Part #666143 / 381704. These bushings are available from www.fcpgroton.com .

It helps to put the bushing in hot water for a few minutes, to make the polymer more pliable. A bit of dish-washing liquid also eases installation. I use a small (1/8") flat-blade screwdriver to help seat the bushing into the opening.

After replacing the bushing(s), if normal shift function is still not correct, look at the nut towards the rear of the linkage. Someone may have changed the position versus the factory-original position.

As others have posted, if the car is "new to you", flush the trans fluid. If it is very dirty, replace with Wal-Mart brand fluid, drive 1,000 miles (1,500 Km) and then re-flush with Mobil 1 ATF.

Hope this helps.

Yours faithfully,

Spook
