S won't shift into gear?

[Jager]

Does the shifter move freely without pushing-in the clutch peddle? All gear positions? Does the shifter feel any different?

Yes, it will move freely without engaging the clutch. It is like there is no gears to choose. Really odd..

What you’re describing it seems your linkage cables got disconnected, at the shifter or at the transmission??

[rdougan]

Thought it was something like that. How hard is it to remove the center console? I can't seem to find any information/tutorials showing you how to do it.

I have not opened my console but I know other members of this forum have, maybe someone will chime-in.

I would get underneath the vehicle and look at the transmission end of the cables while having a friend move the shifter. There is a great picture on this thread: [url]http://986forum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=28990[url] showing the ends of the cables that connect to the transmission linkage. See if you have movement there or if the cables are disconnected.

After checking again, it seems to go into 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th. Going near the left (1,2,R) is very "loose".

Where is that part located? Think I can get access to it without jacking the car?

I have worked on the linkage only while under the vehicle. You might be able to get to the transmission linkage if you remove the rear passenger side wheel, I'm not sure, but in either case you will have to raise the vehicle.
