My '99 SW1 has developed a shifting problem with a manual transmission. The oil checks fine. It sometimes works properly, but often won't go into a gear, any gear. I've found a loose bushing on the top of the transmission. I believe it's on the cable that chooses the gate, rather than the other cable that chooses the gear. This cable is the upper one, which operates a bell crank. It's this pivot which is loose. I wrapped some copper wire around the bushing, under the bell crank, to snug it up a bit. This is helping, but obviously not a good fix.
Does anyone have any suggestions? It looks like the bushing / pivot is pressed into the top of the transmission, which I don't think I'd like to dismantle.
Thank you
Drew
