Shaking gearstick...

Hey everybody,

So yesterday I went to see a MX5 nb 1.8 and it looked great, felt great and everything. BUT, I couldn’t help but notice that the gearstick kept on shaking. At idle and (less) while driving. Do you guys/girls know what this could be?

It’s normal, don’t worry. My 1.6 does it aswell, and every other mx-5 video i saw on youtube did it aswell. It is because you shift directly on the gearbox (i guess that’s the reason, i’m still learning about cars).

Can be just old bushings and all it needs is a shifter rebuild. Nothing major.

Most likely just needs a shifter rebuild.

Does the engine move a lot on idle too. Could be engine or/and diff mounts
