This bushing is the point where the shifter arm pivots. If you are experiencing excess play in your shifter, this could be the cause. Worn out shifter ball bushings allow too much movement from wear over time.

As BMWs age, and from spirited use, the shift linkage in the manual transmission will become worn. This selector rod joint is one of the main pieces in the shift linkage but is often overlooked when installing a new shifter or rebuilding the original linkage. This knuckle is the piece that connects the linkage to the internals of the transmission, therefore, it's vital in completing smooth and crisp shifts. Our selector rod kit includes the pieces to replace the transmission selector rod joint and restore its action to a new feel.

In addition to helping restore shifting feel, this piece is required in many short shift kits and selector rod upgrades. The original joint on your car may be the wrong size or shape to work with the new selector rod.

This kit includes part numbers 25117503525 - selector rod joint, 23411466134 shift linkage pin, 4 x 25111220439 washer .

Shifter slop is a common complaint among all BMW models. Some of that play comes from the bushings where the shifter carrier mounts to the transmission. The original rubber carrier bushings don't last very long and when they get too soft the shifter flops around. These Teflon bushings are not as stiff as Delrin so they won't transmit as much vibration and buzz in the shifter. Yet Teflon will last much longer than the factory rubber, giving you precise shifting for many years.

Note: this is only one part of the shift linkage and there may be other components that need replacing to improve shifting feel.

We advise getting a replacement bushing carrier pin as well. If the original rubber bushings are worn the pin will have wear too and you will still have slop in the shifter, even with the new bushings.

These are the ROUND shifter carrier bushings (some BMW models have oval bushings).

This item fits the following BMWs:
6/1986-1992 E30 BMW 318i 318is 325e 325es 325i 325is 325ic M3

Most BMW shifters lose their like-new feeling after a few years. The culprit is the rubber bushing that BMW installs in the shifter arm location. Each time you move the shift lever, the shift rod moves which creates slop in your shifter. ECS Tuning has developed a direct fit, high-strength Teflon bushing as a replacement. Made from virgin Teflon rod, these bushings contain no fillers or impurities, resulting in a longer-lasting replacement piece. These bushings will remove all of the side-to-side slop from the shifter rod, improving even the stock shifter. Kit featuring the following components, 2 Teflon Bushing Inserts
