Hi, has anyone ever had the misfortune to have an annoying squeak coming from their gear stick. When I am in sports mode and shift the gears up/down their is a squeak ????

Any ideas or should I be off to the stealers???  Java Black TDV6 HSE - Java Grandes Marques 1/18 - Ducati 749s

NO, NOT FROM THE GEAR STICK WHEN IN SPORTS MODE BUT IT I HAVE A "SQUEAK" SOUND FROM NEAR THE GEAR STICK SOMETIMES...GUESS MUST BE THE PLASTIC AROUND, CUPHOLDER ETC...

MIGHT HAVE IT CHECKED OUT..

Not a squeak but in both the Tdv6 and the TDv8 that I have owned, whenever the brake pedal is pushed there is a quiet click in the region of the shifter. I think it may be the interlock that prevents you from shifting out of P or N
without pressing the foot brake. I think a while back MDP also posted about this. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

I can confirm the click noise is normal and is the interlock.

I have experience of the squeak in the past. My dealer dismantled the gear lever covers, lubricated them and then reassembled them. Problem solved. I wish they were all solved as easy as this. Gone - 2008 TDV8, Stornoway Grey, ebony, zabrano trim, TV, Tasmods, mudflaps.

Yup! I have that squeak - only when changing up and down the gears. Its going on in next week for new discs etc so will get it looked at then and let you know what they say

Tim, yes the click is there when you hit the brakes but only when the gear lever is in P or N.
You're right about MDP. I think he was the only one here with that solenoid problem!  Malaysia Boleh!

Just emailed the dealer for it to be looked at. Let me know if you hear of a fix first though!
