No this sounds silly but how do you take the gear knob off on the n15 almera.I thought it was just a screw fit but i cant seem to move it
 
It is screwed..

But its glued aswell. Should ask naylor about this one , smart git got his off without damaging it :p , took a hacksaw to mine
 
I think I started a thread on this subject on the old forum, but here goes!

If it's anything like the N16, you have to cut your old knob off (oo-er missus!!!) and then use a spanner, or socket (19mm I seem to remember, but could be wrong??) and remove a very long sleeve nut from the gear lever. You'll probably have to remove some old glue from the shaft, as it does seem to run down the shaft (Nissan are obviously a bit over-generous in this department) and possibly rub your shaft down with a bit of wet and dry.

(Hopefully, the moderators won't censor any of this!!)
 
Mini Boa!

Go to halfords,get a tool called the mini boa!
It is a strap tool that adjusts perfect round your knob!!
twist it like a wrench and it will break free!!!!
It is threaded too.
