Car Fix DIY Videos

Video tutorial on how to remove the automatic shifter knob on a Volvo. This particular shift knob is found on a variety of Volvo models and applies both to the leather, vinyl, and wood style shift knobs. Removing the knob is required when replacing the shifter knob button. This particular car I am working with here is a 2000 Volvo S70.

Tools/Supplies Needed:
-none

Procedure:
-first start by either blocking the wheels or applying the vehicle’s parking brake
-if your parking brake has not been used in a longer period of time, you can risk the chance of it sticking on, therefore blocking the wheels would be a safer method
-turn the key into the on position, do not start the vehicle
-some vehicle maybe equipped with a safety lock, therefore put your foot on the brake which will disengage it and pull the shifter back into it’s lowest gear setting
-you can either sit in the front seat or in the rear seating area
-do not kneel on the heated seat as this can damage the heated seat element
-firmly place two hands on the shifter and pull upward
-be careful not to hit yourself in the process
-the shifter will pop right out of place
-as for installation, place the shifter back onto the lever and push it down until it clicks
-the leather boot will need to be pulled back into place on the plastic clips
