Trying to find the correct shift linkage bushing for a 2010 G37 AWD Sedan. Replaced with incorrect linkage bushing for temporary fix but looking for a permanent solution. Does the part maybe go by another name. Was looking in the service manual (transmission section) for a part number,
Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Having family member help and no longer know any mechanics. First time DIY with support from family. Thanks. (Basically reconnected loose shifter that disconnected from the transmission. Car was stuck in Drive position.)
This was something I also had to deal with. This is what I came up with.

Here is what I did
The original had collapsed due to leaking trans, most sell this piece with the shifter and through the dealer is almost $60 due to being composed of many shift, pins and gromments.
While checking my inventory I found 90's Honda Delrin fuel rail spacers were a perfect fit as far as OD and ID were. Only require trimming in length (plastic) and a shim for further assurance.
The new bushing can be pressed in as far as you want, this was where I wanted mine's to be.
Better and solid feel.
Has seen 5k miles with no problems. I prefer a solid feel in comparison to the sloppy rubber oem one.
