there seems to be a good bit of looseness in the shifter mechanism lately,
more than I recall when I bought the car 4 years ago... no problems getting
into and out of the gears, and the transmission shifts fine, just a little
concerned that something's wearing/worn and should be replaced. Suggestions
on what to look for? How to get there?...

I don't know what tranny your car has, but this may help to get you in
the right direction.
 
check the shifter bushing both at transmission and shifter assembly under
console may be worn out and need replacement...cheap items to replaceASE
certified transmission tech...dont buy a new computer for your car repair
yours ask me for info [email protected]
 
thanks for the input! I downloaded some of the info and diagrams, and will
take a look at the shifter later this week when I get a chance! I'm guessing
the bushings are wearing with age....
