120 Prado shift lever repair kit

That's what my mechanic said ... damn it when they're right

Sounds electrical. You'll need to open up the shifter box and have a look. Normally the floppiness is in the left - right motions but the gear changes still reflect the position of the gear stick.

So, sometimes it takes a while or a few goes tapping the lever left and right to get my auto box to grab L or 2nd. Does that sound like it would be related to this or is it an electrical selector or something?

Yes, new pin and spring will fix it. New lid is not required. The wear on the lid will still go on though. But probably another 5+ years of life reclaimed with the repair kit.

i'll be happy with that solution compared to replacing the entire box!!!!!!!

My pin had come out, put it back in and tried again and it just keeps popping out. Will the new spring and pin fix this? Do I need a new lid as well?

Thats what mine did mate, the pin andrew supplies is longer so fixed mine

Ok so after having my kit since June 2013 I finaly found the motivation to fit it (slack I know)
Fitting instructions made the job so simple and yes it fixed the problem... thanks amts wish I had of done it sooner. Turns out it wasnt broken but the pin had fallen out, fitted the longer pin anyway

Thanks Andrew, item received and put in, works great. Thanks for the clear instructions. Cheers Steve

Sorry for the maybe dumb question (can't see the photos on phone) but my 120 shifter is all sloppy and won't stay in 4th or L so will this solve it??
Thanks in advance
