Auto Gear Knob

[Buf-Phoon]

Hi Guys , I have covered just over 43000ks in my T and my auto gear knob is looking decidedly second hand with most of the Silver metal look alike starting to come off. Looks like . I drive mostly in manual mode and am wondering whether this is the cause and is this problem widespread

What about Momo shifter that's done 45,000kms and 'leather' is worn through.

Same with the Sports Steering wheel.

Bringing it up at my 45k service. They better replace them, they look like crap.

Scotty, polish Julian's knob please.

On a serious note, mine is worn too, can you get aftermarket auto knobs?

all of ford interior paint is cheap and sh*t in my opinion. their method of applying it is stupid and dodgy.

The silver strip above our glove box is scratched, our shifter is scratched, the cup holder.. yep you guessed it.. scratches all over it, and fianlly the gear shifter surround, scratched up also. dodgy dodgy dodgy... how much would it cost them to clear coat it.. honestly

I know that the manual knobs were causing dramas for the same reason and Ford was replacing them under warranty, might be worth a trip to your dealer to find out about yours...

Same goes for cup holder, shift surround and glove box trim....

I think Ms. Vicky has some polishing to do!

Maybe it should be fixed under warranty if its an issue. Just ring Ford and tell them your KNOB needs attending to.

Maybe I'll leave that one up to you since the majority of ford employees are men
