This seems to be a general problem with the product as others on this board have reported the same issue. I don't know if there is a fix but I'm sure if there is someone will post the information you need. Good luck.

i was thinking a little bit of teflon tape or electracal tape around the lower end ofthe button - but i am more afraid of it jamming or destroying the finish. has anyone had a problem with their other products?

i have bought a number of products from revel enterprises. have been very impressed with the quality of the items that they sell. everything that i have purchased has been top notch. i am planning to buy more from them in the future. also, great people to deal with--pleasant and fair. give them a buzz and let them know what is happening with their product. i am sure they would be very anxious to help you in your situation.

call 'em up, give them the opportunity to make it right.

I agree with Redrum. I have had excellent dealings with Revel Enterprises. I have that same shift knob on my 03 GT and it has always worked like a champ.

Give them a call.

still waiting for their answer - however - is the button suppose to be so loose that it can be picked right up out of the handle with two fingers? i place the car in park and relized that the button slides right out - there is nothing to hold it in place!

Legion that is the way mine is. It is fine. Sure it is rattling, not something else?

Call Revel and inform them that the clip was missing. I'm sure that they will send you the missing clip.
