Hey guys....is there a single, common culprit that causes the gear shifter to rattle when cruising? I know on the Gen 1s it's usually the bushing at the base if the shifter. There are alot of bushings and insulators in the shifter , I just know it's not all of them.

 

Car has 73K 1995 Impreza 2WD 5 speed

 

Thanks, Todd

There a are a half dozen or so little bushings in the shift linkage that can wear and become loose and possibly rattle.

Check the bolt that attaches the shift lever to the linkage. That one rattles a bit every now and then on mine. I put some thick grease in the spacer and all over the bolt and it quit for a while.

If that doesn't help yours the other bushings might be worn out and need replacement.
