My 96 model had a problem last year after 170,000miles of service that involved the fifth gear; it basically stopped working.

I took it to a transmission specialist who said that he had experience with the problem and he actually did fix it. He said that there is a nut that holds the gear in place that needed to be re tightened. There was also a washer that was worn and needed replacement.

Now I have thesame problem, one year later. Has any one else experienced this, and if so, is the problem more than a loose nut and a worn washer?

Thanks in advance for your replies.
