5th gear unseen obstruction.

This is perfect timing. I've been having sort of similar issues and I thought it was due to the clutch. I bled it three times and am still having problems.
In the last two days, I made the discovery that if I couldn't get into gear, I could move the shift all the way to one side and then it would slide into gear.
I think mine is loose instead of out of position. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Question though. Do you have to pull out the whole console or can it be done with the console in place?


Thanks for posting this.

No, you can leave the console in. It's out in my pictures because I was installing a short shifter, and that made it easier to install.

Follow this writeup to get to that plate (link)

I will say that boot was really attached to that plate on my car, and the reason I took the entire console out. I didn't see a way around it in my case. If you have the audio connectors in the console, pull the cup holder out, and disconnect them through there, everything else comes out easily. No big deal.
