I havent seen this topic discussed and so I figured Id bring it up since my car just suffered this apparently nonfrequent problem. Yesterday afternoon I was leaving work (had a BAD day) and so I dumped it pretty hard into first, let it get sideways,and got off of it (Great stress reliever!). Everything seemed normal until I was backing up later on. I popped it into reverse, backed into a parking space and just when I came out of reverse I felt some tension and then nothing.

I couldnt find a gate for any gear at all and I could twist the stick itself almost 360*. Turns out I had sheered a bolt off and another had popped out which inturn released the reverse spring which is MIA.

Just didnt know if anyone has had this problem before. :p I guess she couldnt take the pressure :D
