Shifter Problem

How does the upper portion on the shifter come off on an A4. My button you push to get it out off park has cracked and came off. I just need to replace the plastic button itself.

Don't know if you can just buy the plastic button or not, but to get it off -turn the key to RUN, put shifter in 1st, pry out the staple on the front of the shaft with a small screw driver or needle nose plyers, pull straight up.

You didn't post what your car is. But at least on 93-02 Camaros, it looks like the button is not available separately.

Here are the part numbers for ordering the whole upper portion:

A4 control lever (shifter) **** (93-99 Camaro with RPO NP5) = 10079809
A4 control lever (shifter) **** (00-02 Camaro with RPO NP5) = 12563173
A4 control lever (shifter) **** (93-99 Camaro with RPO NK3) = 10111639
A4 control lever (shifter) **** (00 Camaro with RPO NK3) = 10163833
A4 control lever (shifter) **** (01-02 Camaro with RPO NK3) = 22680651
