Review on Bushing Repair Kit - Transmission Shift Cable Bushing Fix NI1KIT by Gabe Ries

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works perfectly. but the operating costs.

Well, what if your car won't go into reverse? You panic. How much will it cost? hundreds? thousands? New transmission? You do some research and realize that the connection cable may have come loose. Boy I hope that's the problem. Youtube video shows how to check it. BINGO! Now find the part. The dealer will only sell the entire cable if only a small (very small) spigot is needed. A search shows this is the only one that fits your vehicle. 30 dollars, hooray! The part fits. Easy to replace. Five minutes and problem solved! Why did I only give 4 stars now? Because a perfect spare part must not cost the seller more than 0.20 cents in production. The $30 fee is exploitation, and while I'm a supporter of capitalism and free enterprise, the 15,000% premium is a bit excessive. As far as I can see the provided "tool" serves no purpose. Again the part is PERFECT and who wouldn't pay $30 to fix their car. But 15000%? For real?

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • A few little things
