Anyone got any suggestions, I was driving home the other day and the gear stick dropped a little so it was touching the top of the cat. It could still change gear but you had to lift the shaft up as you changed. Haven't really been to see until today. I figured it would just be the plastic socket that holds the stick in place as my car seems to go through these farely often, as i got under the car low and behold one of the bolts was loose so did that up checked all over made sure it was all good. Now when i tested it it will not select 5th gear without pulling it up. We're talking half a mill? (as apposed to the half an inch before i bolted it up) This seems very odd to me, i could strip it all back and use washers to keep the shaft high enough but i don't think i should have to, anyone with any suggestions?
