Can someone with an automatic tell me how the shifter should work/feel when manually shifting 1 through d? Havent had my 06 very long and I have manually shifted through the positons but at times the shifter feels like it doesn't really have a positive click or feel like its where it needs to be in 1 2 and 3. are these stock shifters slopply like this or is my linkage possibly out of adjustment? thanks!

Mine was pretty solid on my last GT, even at 110k miles.

I'd check the linkage.
I manually upshifted for 1000s of miles.

And when I pulled everything at 154k, it was still solid the very last time I clicked it into Neutral.

I put a TCI ratchet shifter in mine, and now I have positive shifts when manual shifting through the gears. This is not the cheapest fix, but works a heck of a lot better than the stock shifter.
