This should serve as a reminder that when we backyard engineer something (like this C4 swap) we can't just throw out the factory bits and pieces willy-nilly! They're usually there for a reason. Since the trans shifted properly "in the Grananda", first question should be "What's different? What changed during the swap?" Then, "Why isn't there any linkage on that lever on the side of the trans? Was it there before?" We can save ourselves a lot of grief with just a little effort!
