Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My manual transmission has a problem, the car is still drivable, but every time i push my clutch, my shifter moves up and down, forward, or backward and sometimes goes out of the gear. i thought that it could be a problem with one of my mounts going bad, but a mechanic checked them and said they were ok. then i found out about the failures of transmissions by other cars just like mine, so it's probably a manufacturer's mistake because there are the so called getrag 5 speed transmissions inside my car and they are the one's supposedly to go bad easily. a replacement would cost me a lot of money which i can't come up with that easy. now the worst is, i don't know how much longer i'm going to be able to drive my car, but i have been told it ain't going to be longer than 2-3 months and then my transmission will die completely. *jb ***dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis****742572
