Momo shift knobs have a very strange way of fitting but yes they do fit although I have a momo shift knob on my car and I am not satisfied because it loosens very easily you don't screw the knob in you put three allen wrenches tightly and they don't hold on to the big scrw the shifter has so it just doesn't work I reccomend you get something that screws on like the knob audi has

All short Momo shift knobs "sorta" fit the A4. I have the Momo Short Anatomico Zebrano one...it constantly requires tightening of the allen bolts. The fun part was when I was attending a driving school and the thing vibrated loose on me....try driving fast with a very loose shift knob....quite challenging! I still like how it looks.<p>Steve S.<br>97 2.8QM<br>

I have not replaced the shift knob on my A4 yet but I did on my Subaru and found the original had a lip which held the boot snug against the knob. I had to improvise with a rubber band looped around the shaft to give the boot something to catch on.<p>Is there a similar setup in the A4? If so how did you remedy it? TIA<p>cj

I have had to tighten it once since April 97. I've heard reports of interference of the plastic top of the shift boot with the bottom of the knob, but I did not have this. I keep the allen wrenck for it in the glove box, just in case.<p>Donnie

I have been talking to Adrian at VW Sport about getting a momo shift knob. He said that he has one in his car and in order to reuse the OEM boot you do have to improvise a bit. He said he's using a twist tie. I couldn't really visualize the whole thing and I haven't got the knob yet so I haven't had to cross that bridge...<p>I'll post more when I get to it.<p>Jason
