Hi there,

yesterday I was cruising along in my beloved Cooper S when I went to change up to 5 gear and the round top of my gear stick just popped right off ! Luckily it came off in my hand and so I popped it back on with a resounding click and it seems to be ok now.
Anybody had a similar problem and should it go to the dealer to be checked ? Seems to have clicked back into position now so assume it is safe ?

Thanks in advance for any helpful comments !
