hi guys, ever since iv had the car iv noticed the gear shiffter doesnt spring back the middle when in neutral? It only springs back when i move it to the right, but when i move it to the left while in neutral, it jsut stays all the way over?
Does anyone have any ideas?

put a ripshifter in it, should solve the issue and make changing from 2-3 alot more fun!
I cant remember what returns the shifter in the stock linkage whether its springs or bush's but im sure someone here will know....

MY EB does the same its a wear and tear thing with 350000km's I'd go an aftermarket shifter as they are better quality, the factory ones arent that great

I am pretty sure you will find that in the AU's it is a bush that will return the shifter.
Cheers, Rhys
