Mercedes Vito gear change issue 2nd and reverse fix 

You are a real Hero. I've spent lots of money for these problems. Mechanics replaced lots of parts, never think about the Bush. I can't believe it, its a the simple solution.

Thank you so much for the video Mark. It helped a lot! Took an hour or so, worked like a charm. Tight and precise now. 👌

Great video. As a side note to anyone reading this. I fixed my reverse issue by applying a lubricant spray to the area. There wasn’t much grease and the gears were a little stiff. I sprayed a multi purpose lub on and it seems to have worked.

Thanks mate,just saved me from the greedy claws of mercedes. They urged me to buy a whole new gear lever....

Thanks for the video. Made the job quick (40mins?) and simple. In fact I found I didn't even need to fully remove the stick assembly. I didn't disconnect the second ball joint: managed to fit the new bush with that second joint still attached.

Did this. 40 minutes, £20! Great fix.

the squeals of joy when getting it in reverse... bless ya! better than xmas lol

Nice one. Thanks to you job done 👍

yea just dont this with the kit u shared the link to......what a difference....had a little crucnch on 2nd and all works mint now mate.......thanks

Great video.gonna have to do this to mine soon. Gear change getting very stiff lately. Meantime I'm gonna spray it with motorcycle chain grease .

Excellent job

I have a left-hand drive Vito. We are driving on the right side of the road here in sweden and I wonder if this one fits my car or is it just for right hand drive? Its a Vito 639 and year model 2011.

You make this look so easy! My 2013 vito struggles to get into 2nd gear.. more so in the mornings.. crunching and hard to get in.. plus seems stiff in the movement.. Think Im going to attempt this. What sort of grease did you use to regrease it? Thanks

Thenk yo

Hi Mark, great video mate you can’t imagine how much it has helped me. Just a question, my vito is a 2002 112cdi 2.2L would that part work for it ?

Very helpful vid, thanks :) Just about to order a kit to do mine. Out of noseyness, what sort of mileage had yours done when you did this repair? Mine is well up over 130k, and there's so much play in the stick that when it's in gear it wobbles side to side as much as it does in neutral!

Just changed this bush now cant get second at all where as i had a very slight crunch before...could this be a new bush problem as it goes into everything but second, any ideas?

Great video good verbal guide, shame I can’t see what you’re doing .

Salut 🤔Comment changer sa sur w204, merci

Hi is it the same bush for mercedes sprinters? Thanks

Bonjour j’ai aussi un vito 109 C.D.I. de 2008 j’ai un problème avec la deuxième vitesse qui craque vous pensez que la pièce que vous changer peut résoudre le problème merci d’avance Francesco

This the same on a w638? Got the problem its not going into reverse like 80% of the time

Link! Pls.

Could this be the cause of my second gear crunching?

I have the same problem. I need the reference pls

Am doing this at the moment. Can anyone tell me how to remove the cup holder/ash tray?

Salut! Imi poti supne de unde ai cumparat piesa? Te rog

Now that I can c the problem,,I'm in PE who can assist me ?

Can anyone tell me who had this problem and fixed it with this solution, whether when the bushing was bad, did it crunch into gear? Did this solve that? Thanks.
