Genuine Renault Gear Linkage Boot - Clio 2 RS / Williams / GT Turbo

The risks of a torn or missing gear linkage boot

Neglecting the condition of the gearbox linkage boot on your Renault sport vehicle is a mistake that silently degrades your driving pleasure. Without this protection, the selector link ball joint and the quickshift mechanism are exposed to road debris, water, and grime. By failing to replace a porous boot, you risk premature wear of the bushings, excessive play in the lever, and eventually, seizing of the gearbox control linkage, making gear changes difficult or even impossible during intensive driving.

A genuine Renault part for maximum reliability

For a component exposed under the chassis, using a genuine manufacturer part is paramount. This protective bellows, made of high-density rubber, offers superior resistance to hydrocarbons and temperature fluctuations. Unlike universal models, it ensures a perfect seal on the gearbox linkage, guaranteeing that the grease remains clean and effective. At Optimiz Access, we always recommend this OEM standard for the maintenance of your classic and performance cars.

FAQ: Why change my gear selector boot?

Is it compatible with a Quickshift kit?

Yes, this original boot is vital to protect the ball joint of your quickshift. It fits perfectly at the junction of the selector rod to prevent the mechanism from being abraded by sand or dirt.

What are the signs of wear?

If you notice visual cracks or if your lever becomes harder to operate, replacement is urgent. A clean linkage is the secret to a gearbox that lasts.
