Default Help with Shift handle

Does anyone know how to remove the shift handle on a C7 Automatic. Have looked and everything is for the Manual shift. Need to get to the cup holder door.

I think it just pulls straight up.. I will check manual


Says Pull up and Twist.... must have a locking tab like the ring on the manual...
Post a photo of what you find when you get it off.

Must be trick to the pull up part. Mine would not move up even a fraction of an inch. Thus no twisting or removing.

Did you try twisting both directions? It may be like the chrome ring on the manual. It does twist but was not easy the first time. Most end up having to use channel locks.

Hold Handle .. depress button .. pull up really hard .. helps to be in Neutral. Like I said .. pull really hard ... it will pop off even though it feels like you are going it break it. Make sure you pop out the boot and trim first. Make sure you disconnect the wiring harness to the selector.
