ok so i notice that my reverse doesnt go in like it used to... before it used to go in all the way now it seems that it goes half way... sometimes i think its in reverse and i go and it grinds cus its not in. then when it is in reveryse, i have to go slow or it will pop out of reverse... now, this is only in reverse. 1st 2nd and all the other gears are fine. but just reverse gives me the problem... im not crazy about it cus its reverse that has the problem and not a normal gear. i can deal with the reverse popping out, all i will do is back up slower then normal... what do u think this is? anyone else have this problem? i have 110K miles on my gst. thanks need some input.

ok so i think i know the problem!!!! i looked under the hood where the cables of the trans goes to the firewall... i was looking carefully and i told my gf to get in and put it in reverse... well she did and then i was checking to see if there was a problem and i notice this brown arm that is under the intake and its connected to the wires from the firewall that move the shift knob and all.... well when she put it in reverse you can see that this rod arm thingy rams into the hose clamp of my j pipe from my evoIII turbo... if i move the clamp alittle it should be enough to clear and then i should be good. here is a pic... my tools are at work so im going to take a ride to work and do it there, should take me no more then 5 min to do... thanks for the help!!!!!!!!1
