What This Product Does

The knob provides the hand-contact surface used to move the manual gear lever. It is an interior control component, distinct from the selector cables, lever bracket and internal gearbox mechanism.

Functions

• Provides a grip for operating the gear lever.
• Replaces the existing knob when renewing the interior control trim.

Technical Details

• Porsche part number: 99742407593A15.
• Operator-specified trim: black Alcantara.

Why Replacement Matters

Renewing a worn or damaged knob addresses the condition of the surface handled during gear changes and helps retain the original interior specification. Replacement should follow confirmation that the knob itself, rather than another part of the shift mechanism, needs attention.

FAQs

Will a replacement knob cure difficult gear selection?

Not necessarily. Clutch, linkage or cable faults need separate diagnosis; replacing the handgrip does not repair those components.

What should I check for compatibility?
Compare the vehicle's transmission, equipment codes and existing part identification. The assembly titles include multiple versions, while individual
diagram rows carry narrower application notes.

Check fitment for your specific vehicle (model, year, engine) before ordering.
