I had this happen at the Funkonna at VTR 2007. I ordered a new ball and spring
to only have it happen again here in Florida. So now I'm driving without the
ball and spring and the vibration/noise is not a problem. I guess the fix is to
replace the shift lever and the ball and spring, but I'm happy the way things
are.
hope this helps
