How to Remove the Gear Knob of BYD F0?
2 Answers
Upon close observation of the gear knob of the BYD F0, you can notice a clip underneath it. Locate the clip beneath the gear knob of the BYD F0. Then, use a flat-head screwdriver to press down firmly on the clip area, causing the gear knob to become loose. Next, hold the other end of the gear knob with your hand and pull it upwards with force. Finally, this way, you can remove the gear knob.
Removing the gear knob of the BYD F0 is actually quite simple. I've done it several times myself, and it feels like playing with building blocks. First, turn off the car and make sure it's parked securely, engage the handbrake, and shift the gear lever to the neutral position. Find a small wrench or screwdriver as a tool; if you don't have one, you can just use your hands. The gear knob is mostly threaded at the bottom, so you can loosen it by turning it counterclockwise with force, but don't be too rough to avoid damaging the plastic parts. If it's stuck due to rust from years of use, spray some rust remover or gently tap the edges to help loosen it. After removal, you might notice dust accumulation affecting the grip, so take the opportunity to clean the gear lever. When reinstalling, just align it and tighten it clockwise—it's effortless. DIY saves money and is fun, plus you can upgrade to a more personalized style, like a racing-style ball knob. Regular hands-on maintenance can extend its lifespan and make driving smoother!
