If your vehicle is equipped with a manual transmission chances are you have never replaced the shifter bushings. Your Volkswagen Phaeton shifter bushings are located in the shift linkage and provide shock absorption when shifting gears to prevent expensive transmission damage. Over time the factory Volkswagen Phaeton shifter bushings wear down and the shift linkage becomes sloppy. This can lead to missed shifts and can even cause premature wear on the gearbox. Here at Andy's Auto Sport we have a full selection of replacement Volkswagen Phaeton shifter bushings from all of the leading manufacturers. Take a look at our extensive lineup to find the perfect bushings to restore your vehicle's performance.

OEM shifter bushings are normally made of rubber. Over time the rubber stretches and degrades to the point where your vehicle will no longer shift properly. To remedy this problem many aftermarket venders have developed urethane Volkswagen Phaeton shifter bushings that provide a vast improvement over rubber. Urethane is better at maintaining its shape, is slightly more rigid, and has much greater durability than OEM rubber bushings. If you are looking to replace your shifter bushings we highly recommend spending a little extra money to get the high-performance urethane versions. With improved shifting and reliability you will not regret it.
