• Q: How to replace the control lever and Shift Linkage Boot on 2010 GMC Canyon?

  A: The first step to replace the control lever and shift boot requires removal of the shift lever assembly that could be either (w/o D06) or (D06) depending on the vehicle configuration. The console removal procedure should be performed for vehicles lacking d06 when using either large w/manual or auto transmission or small w/manual transmission. The first step involves unscrewing the boot screws on the control lever before tilting the boot to free it from the lever. Apply neutral position (N) and proceed to take out the housing assembly bolts before fully removing the housing assembly with its attached gasket. Apply a mask to cover the control lever housing aperture to avoid foreign debris entry into the transmission system while performing the disassembly of the control lever housing. You should resume the housing assembly if you disassembled it and then remove the masking while checking for both dryness and cleanliness of the sealing surface. Position the control lever gasket on top of the transmission before placing the control lever housing assembly above the control lever assembly opening while aligning the bushing to the internal shift control lever. Place the control lever housing assembly bolts and apply torque to 20 nm (15 lb ft). Sitting the boot over the control lever requires careful placement without carpet material between boot and floor panel while gently dropping the boot for seating against floor level. Secure the control lever boot screws with torque setting of 2.5 nm (22 lb in). Complete the installation by inserting the console assembly without d06 if necessary along with the shift lever component (w/o D06) or (D06).
