Good looking out. Mine broke today. Got part ordered and waiting. Thanks for the heads up and peace of mind.

Wonderful! Thank you so much for this video!!! Saved me!

nice post, my 08 Xterra went out at 110K, pretty easy minus pushing the bushing over the lock Rod...

Thank you for the video bud you are right you are the only one I seen on here but I am glad you did it big help !

Thank you for this video, same thing happened to me!

I just changed my grommet. I had to buy a cable from the dealer, remove the grommet and put the new grommet into the old cable. I didn't pull the cable out though. I did it in situ but ran a string through the grommet and the metal loop so that if I dropped it which I did several times, it would never get lost. I was lucky to also be in drive when it broke.

This video saved us. Our Nissan shift broke in the parking lot of a restaurant. Your video helped us access the cable so we could get home. We ordered the part and you saved us a ton of money. Many heartfelt thanks!

Thanks a lot. With your video were able to go home, order the parts and install the kit. Saved from repair and learned how to fix it. I'm so BLESS for your video instruction, and happy to learned a lot. Thanks again.

Very helpful thanks!

Bro saved my bacon with this video

Thank you for posting this. I got to work and as I was trying to shift to park, it wouldn’t. A friend knew someone that would “fix” it. Had to go to amazon and bought the bushing repair kit like you had. The guy was supposed to come on Saturday, but it is memorial day weekend and so he needed to go out of town. I couldn’t wait until Tuesday, so I followed your video. I’ve never done any kind of repair on my vehicle before. You made it so simple and clear what to do. No fancy tools just what I already had in my toolbox. Had my flashlight ready. And you were right,The hardest part was putting everything back. Thank you again for posting this video.

THANKS SO MUCH. I have a 2007 and nissan quoted me 1200 with parts ans labor over the phone. I saw this video and ordered from bushing fix, and installed it and save the money. Your video saved me from getting ripped off at the dealer.

Thank you so much for showing how to take off each piece and how to connect each piece back. Your awesome! God bless you

Thanks for this. I just knew it was the transmission and I was waiting on the tow truck. Saw your video and canceled the tow. Everything works perfectly now.

Same thing happened on my 06 Xterra, luckily happened while backing out of my driveway! Pretty simple fix! I pulled on one side of cup holders and pulled out, pulled up on the rear part (near cup holders)of the plastic that goes around shifter,(comes right off) then pulled up on shifter handle and it came up! Took about 5 mins! Ordered my bushing from Bushing Fix! Thank You Sir for the video!

Thank you. I found it easier to hook up the bushing first to the shiftetr rod then align the cable in the bracket and put back the locking pin. It did take me a little bit to figure out how to position the cable in the bracket and apply the locking pin.

Worked exactly as described. Much easier to do when removing clip so cable can be lifted up for install. That company is making a fortune selling a 25 cent bushing for $ 25.

This particular bushing is now available and regularly stocked, without special request on their website. THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!!!! This issue It was a very unpleasant surprise at 4:30am on a work day!

Thank you, you saved me from a large repair bill.

The same issue on my 2007 xterra, I bought the same part on amazon. The same part and part number for less than $30. Thanks for the video!

Thanks a lot man, just happened to me tonight. Was able to hand remove everything and manually shift it to get home. You rock dude.

Thanks for the Video saved me a lot of time and money

I had the same thing happen to my 2008 Pathfinder. Found your vid and ordered from bushingfix. I'm also in Fla., but added priority ship. It came in two days. My console was a little different. The main piece the shift handle comes through curves up and includes the seat warmer switches. Also, the small panel above comes out with four torx screws and makes it even more open. Pulling down the silver plastic bezel under the shift knob exposes a u-shape clip which when removed, allows the shift knob removal. The main curved panel then can be removed and set aside. Your vid encouraged my to fix it myself. I searched for the bushing, but couldn't find it for my exact model. Only Bushingfix had it. $24.99 + ship. I guess one could drive the car if the shift cable was exposed and manipulated by hand with the indication of the gear selected showing on the dashboard. THANKS.

Just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for sharing this. Happened to me on my 2006 Frontier as I drove up the driveway. The same part you listed DOES WORK on the Frontier at least for my year. Great video easy as you show, just lube well and allow the lube to make it easy to install. Abundant Blessings Thanks again

Thank you for the vid man, my 2007 Xterra wouldn't engage any gears this morning, took the console off, didn't see anything initially, got online, found your vid, bam, disintegrated bushing, thanks for saving me from a huge headache!

I have a 06 Nissan Frontier, very similar console to your Exterra. First time I've done this but with your videos help it definitely helped me out. Gotta say your very handy with one hand while holding the camera with the other. I had two hands working on this crap and was having alot of problems, especially second guessing on how to take off the console and shifter and putting it back. Thanks for the video, keep'm coming.

Thanks for posting this video. The only thing I'd add is that you don't need any grease on the outside of the bushing. You can put the grease directly on the metal pin on the shift lever and that will be sufficient to keep everything working properly.

nice job on this video you saved me a bunch of money also

Thank you for making this video.. My pathfinder wouldnt start and i couldnt figure out why..the bushing had broke and my car was stuck on neutral.. Therefore not starting.. I popped this bushing in and im back on the road... Thanks again and God bless

Ran in to the same issue on my 07 xterra today. Good info thanks man!!

That's a awesome video Bro. I just had this problem while at a shopping mall in Houston,tx and it broke while in reverse I seen this video and saved alot of money. Thanks once again

Thanks for the video, dude! The fix was pretty easy and saved me a ton of dough. I was stuck in park, googled the problem, found your video, ordered the part from bushingfix.com. It arrived super quick. I'm back on the road! I appreciate the assist!

OP, here is wishing a lot of good Karma your way! I was sitting at a gas station when mine broke! I searched thenewx.org and found your post there and you linked your video. It allowed me to see how to take the console apart and I pushed the cable over onto the shifter post and it allowed me to put the truck into drive so I could get home. I ordered the part and Ascension Engineering got it here in 2 days. About to go install now. Thanks again for taking the time to save everyone else's tail.

You rock! This video was extremely helpful for my 2005 Nissan Frontier. I ordered the bushing from bushingfix.com . They are located in Florida and said it would take 5-6 days to get and I got it in 3 days all the way to Hawaii. The tip on removing the cable was a big help. $30 for bushing and shipping vs $50 for the whole cable from Nissan with the same poor bushing. Imagine what it would have cost if I took it to the dealer and they replaced the whole cable.

Thanks man. I fix mine. Mine 2006 pathfinder has same problem

Thanks tons for the video and the company name; I have a 2007 and mine broke loose today when I tried to shift from reverse.

Great video! I had a related issue where a metal detent had a loose screw, rotated, and jammed up the shifter. Popped the cable of trying to move it around. Watched the video and just went to see if I shattered the bushing...thankfully it just popped off.

well done! I just had the exact same problem with my 2006 titan. I bought the Dorman 14055 bushing kit for $10.00 to repair mine. I think someone on the titan forums had done this before. It isn't the same and is difficult to put on but it does work. The dealer wants $500 + to replace the entire cable, they will not replace the bushing.

Brother, thank you, saved me a lot of grief. Wish to hell they made taking the console apart easier..LOL.... Cheers, Doc

I just wire tied it to the side to keep it towards the drivers side

THANKS. I might try putting some washers, then a C clip on the groove at the end of the shaft the cable slides onto. if not I will get the kit.

They need to recall this shit

thank you very much you save me a lot money , I have the same problem, thanks one more time

Thanks. Used this video for reference

Thank you I was quoted $200.00 + parts and $150.00 towing. Parts cost 20 bucks ;)

Thanks for the video big help.

Thank you for making this video my Son's xterra has the same problem and you talk about no room to work. I'm gonna order that part as well if you have the measurement's that would be sweet mine is a 2006 as well.

THANKS BRO THIS HAPPENED TO ME TODAY

If you have trouble pushing the bushing over the pin you can use a 3/8 drive socket wrench with a socket as leverage. I didn't have the leverage without removing more parts.

Thanks: ferdinandasalls, I just experience the same dilemma as everyone else, I hope this works I order the part today... Karma will reward you, that's certain.

Very informative 🙏🏾

THANK YOU!!

Mahalo from Hawaii

Thank you very much!!! Same problem here with my Xterra 2007, send for the bushing, all set! great service!

Hi, so I just got my transmission replaced, and my 2005 XTerra won't turn over in Park usually unless I push up on the shifter or put it in neutral. Just wondering if you noticed any similar issue before it came off completely for you. Trying to determine if this might be my issue. Thanks for the video!

Next time it happens, you dont need to climb under the truck to manually shift it.. remove the cable retainer clip off the cable, grab cable and shift it by hand by pushing and pulling..the same action as if it as connected to the shifter..from inside the vehicle.

Hey ferdinandasalls, i just had this issue happen to me this week. I usually do a lot of my own work on my cars mostly Honda's. However, the only part of job am having issues with is removing the shift mechanism out of the way. How did you removed it? That's if you recall it since it was 8 months ago. I am waiting on part as we speak, if you happen to look on this threat again please let me know. In the mean time I'll be trying to figured it out. Great job on video. Thanks

Thanks for the info man everything is as you said...only problem im having is getting the bushing back on to the rod...did you use a flat head or something to push it on?

What is a good temporary fix for this? I have to move my car 2 blocks or I will get a fine.

Nissan quoted me 890 for new shifter

How did you remove the P, R, N, D section?

did anyone have there abs vod and slip light stay on after this fix and if so how did you fix it

What did you use to push that Bushing on the rod?

Hello, can someone tell me, or show a video on how to remove the Shift Selector Cover (P R N D 2 1) so I can get to the connection. This video helped, but I would appreciate instructions to remove the cover. My Nissan Frontier 2007 console and shifter looks like the same one as this video. Thanks.

yeah, for 25dols for that little plastic!?! come onnnn. . . . .
