I went to downshift today from 3 to 2 and shifter went in but did not catch the gear. Then drive on and find lost all 3 gears on bottom of h pattern 2,4,r. I limped home with 1,3,5 and sometimes 2 or 4 would work but mostly not. When u put the lever in on of those positions it just like it pulls itself back out ( u can see the lever moving ) . Is this just a linkage problem or worse?
Could be the cables out of adjustment... check those first as it's cheaper
if thats not the case it is probably the syncros inside the tranny>
is there any loud pop or any thing when it slips out?
Dark for fear of failure
An inner gloom as wide as an eye and fermenting
Roiling hate
Death gripped my veins
Unveiling rancid petals
Flowering forth foul nectar
The space between a blink and a tear

have a 99 had to end up changing my tranny. I took my car to GMlong ago and they told me i would have to pay to check the tranny (which mean hours to remove the tranny) if nothing was wrong i would have to pay the cost of labor. I think it was the synchros. Because they could not help me i had to get a new tranny

It turned out I had to replace the cables and shift lever. Probably just a cable problem, but got a used cable and lever for 50.CDN. so replaced it all. Now I know it had been going bad for a while. Hope this helps someone.
