hard to shift...

Our '85 924S is a bit "notchy" to shift
it's only the left-right motion that is hard

the front back motion is very smooth (1-2 or 3-4), but upshifting from 2 to 3 or downshifting from 5 to 4

I checked the shifter inside the car. There is some play there because the pin on the shifter is worn a little, but that's not really the problem

I tried to check the mechanism on top of the gearbox, but it's a little hard to get to

any ideas on where to specifically look to solve this would be much appreciated!

cheers,

Jeroen

You need to fix the slop in the shifter first. Then drain and replace the transaxle lube with some good synthetic. Drive it for a while and report back.
