Can the knob shift be replaced with a gear lever shift? It is recommended to go to a professional modification shop for the change, as general shops may not make it work well. The extended knowledge about knob shift and gear lever shift is as follows: The drawback of knob shift is that it cannot perform blind shifting like a gear lever. With a gear lever, the position and feel allow the driver to know which gear the car is in. Therefore, when using button shift, the driver must glance at it every time; otherwise, it is easy to press the wrong button. Sometimes, certain models may design the shift buttons together with the engine and transmission buttons, increasing the chance of misoperation. During driving, this can easily lead to situations like accidentally turning off the engine, posing significant safety hazards. As for the gear lever shift, it makes driving operations more convenient, simpler, and helps prevent misoperation. On the other hand, button shift effectively saves space, enhances the car's style, and uses differentiated designs for each gear, allowing the driver to distinguish the gears by feel and shape. In conclusion, both button shift and gear lever shift have their own advantages and disadvantages. As long as it suits your habits, it is the best to use.
