    its probably the bushing. my brothers e30 ad the same problem. only problem is theres like 3 different bushings and in order to get the right one you gotta order the whole kit.

    Yeah it's the bushing, usually the one at the bottom causes this.

    I don't even know how to do it on my trans.. The top looks sealed.. My miata and other 5 speeds had 3 - 4 bolts on the top and shifter comes off

    Should be a little cup. They get worn out over time. Causes free play.
