One of the cables will have popped off if you can only get 3rd and 4th
Cheers! They easy to pop back on?

Aye they're easy to pop back on. If it's a MK2 dCi 100
Look down behind the battery and ECU and you might spot it hanging there. After so many years the cables do fray and just all of a sudden go loose. I doubt that will have happened to the side to side cable though

Hero! Popped straight back on.

Love the easy fixes!
Haha yeah, I was thinking I was having to leave an hour early to catch the train to work
Was short lived
Popped off again as soon as I went over a bump, think the bush might be fucked as you can pull it back off with no effort.
Would something like this help? Just to clamp it in place.

How bad is the plastic?
Theres some push tabs that usually break off but you can pop the plastic end out and push a new one in

Got a link for the clips? Not a clue what I’m looking for and Google throws up all kinds of s**t

Might be easier to try and find a cable rather than bodge it tbh, it looks worn as f**k 😂

You could do this tbf. I bodged my mrs' Mini like this and it's held alright
Needed to replace the cable ties last year after 2 years of them being on there

Hi. Sorry to reignite an old thread but I have similar sounding issue on my clio mk2. Garage said cables are integrated to gear lever assembly and will be about a grand to fix. Is there a way to repair this cable?
Many thanks

No worries. They sound like they're pulling your pisser mate
You can swap the cables out. There are 2 coloured cables on the dCi 100. A blue one and a white/grey one. There's 4 torx bolts that hold the unit together and then you can swap the cables. The hardest part is getting the selector out of the car to replace them because you need to pop the cables off, twist and release them from the cable holder, move the exhaust out of the way, take the heatshields off, unbolt it from the car and slide the whole unit out
| 8200905264 - Part number for the selector unit itself |
The blue cable can be had here - Part number 7701479164
They're different lengths. The blue one in your pic is 955mm the white/grey one is 898mm
That garage sound like they're trying to lift your leg up and don't actually want to help, they just want to make their own life easier rather than looking for the part number properly

Thanks for quick reply. It's a 1.5 mk2 clio 65. Is it still same cables?
Thanks again

It'll be the same mate. Yours should be a JR5 gearbox
It's the same cables, gearbox and engine found in the MK3 Clio too

Can I also just confirm the which one I need.
Awesome, thank you.

Sorry one final question if I may
. I know that picture isn't great, but does it look like it's knackered? Just wondering if it could be what it's clipping onto that's worn instead..

The balls on the selector arm for the gearbox very rarely wear it's usually the cableSorry one final question if I may
I cable tied the selector on my Megane which worked for a while I til I could replace the cable
