I had a similar issue.poss said:
Ended up with the roof down, standing over the top and yanking away until it finally let go!
Neighbours looked a bit worried as all they could see was me bobbing up and down with my hands down by my knees (ever the optimist) :roll:
Hopefully blowtorch is a desperate joke.poss said:
You'd melt the plastic inside and weld it on even tighter, plus associated damage around that area.
If it is really, definitely, absolutely not going to move then I guess you'd have to sacrifice the old knob by carefully cutting away at it until you can loosen it.
Don't twist it as you may damage the locating flat that holds it in the right orientation. In fact that may have happened already and someone has glued it??
Presumably the one already fitted is indeed the original OEM version and not one added by a previous owner...?
