Default TG Short Shifter

Just got my ToyGuyDesign short shifter installed yesterday.

FANTASTIC! what a great upgrade over stock!

Another happy customer for TG!

Anyone out there still driving an S4 with a stock shifter should really make the switch.

Default thx. not concerned about the swap (i put the tanoga in).

wondering more about the shifter feel, esp. with most of the lateral play removed.

Default Slight highjack.....how can i tell if i have a short shifter...

i know this sounds a little crazy, but an audi tech was driving my car the other day and asked if i had a short shifter installed. i haven't had one installed, but i did buy the car used (from the dealer)....is there any easy way to tell?? i honestly don't think that it is a SS, but who knows!

Default You could

unbolt 2 nuts and get a visual, or you could measure and compare to my measurements...<ul><li><a href="http://ctny.audiworld.com/mark/s4/shortshifter/">http://ctny.audiworld.com/mark/s4/shortshifter/</a</li></ul>

Unscrew the ****. If the shaft is NOT hollow, it's non-stock.
