Shifter A/T: Service Precautions

This article is updated by TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) 06-40-001 dated January 2006.

Description:
The shift knob lever removal procedure provided in the 2006 Azera Shop Manual is incorrect. In the shop manual, what appears to be a shift knob that is threaded onto the shift lever is actually held in place by a C-clip. Attempting to remove the shift knob by twisting the knob counter-clockwise to unthread it may result in damage to the shift knob. The correct removal procedure is provided in this bulletin.
