Default sen's broken box =[

so i was "driving"...

and i shifted hard into 2nd and it just went all the way back.

that night i lost 2nd 4th and R...

i prayed it was something repairable by me... but i dont know.

took off the center console...

the "shaft housing" (i dont know the correct technical term) but it was no longer in its slot.. i hope this is the only thing wrong...

just from observing.. it looks like the plastic clips (skinny pieces of material i might add) that lock the housing into the slot broke and i have temporarily fixed the problem...

i drive with the center console housing off.. because im afraid that it will just pop out again and i will be assed out...

any suggestions or help to re-inforce or better remedy the problem...

i am in socal if anyone has any connections at toyota dealers or any suggestions that would be greatly appreciated...

since this incident it takes the fun out of driving my box..

sen.

hope you get it fixed though

all that happened was a problem with shift linkage. probably an easy fix.
