Well ive been looking for a solution to this for bloody ages and its finally come up on the 6 forum so this is shamelessly stolen from there!
Sloppy gear change is usually caused by 3 things. Bad linkages (replace with uprated ones), loose bolt and worn bearing connecting the gear shifter to the selector rod and the bush on the other end of the selector rod. 1st two are easy but the third isn't. The bush wears down over the years allowing the nylon ball to rattle about in there and gives a sloppy change but now luckily it seems you can get replacement bushes.

Just cost me £8.35 delivered but most of thats postage so im sure someone on here could do a group buy if needed to keep costs down.

No. The bearing is not available from pug. It comes as part of the selector rod which is NLA but someone on the 6 forum found a equivalent.

Niall got his for £9 delivered and most was postage so how do you justify 36 each delivered?
