[QUOTE="Dean Hedin, post: 1007257, member: 57230"] My shifter is getting sloppy. Sometimes I have to fiddle with it to get it into drive. For example: this morning leaving for work I thought it was in drive but apparently not. Tranny does not like being off in detent! I checked the torx screws under the column and they are tight. So that is not it. What do I got? Worn cable? Connection down at tranny worn? Seems to me to be wear in the column shift mechanism. Should I take it to the dealer or fix myself? 2003 auto 4wd with 80K miles [/QUOTE]
