Subject: [T3] loose shifting > Hello, > > My 71 type 3 has an extremely loose shifter...

There is a rectangular plate, just forward of the transmission. I would inspect the coupling while someone operates the shifter before tearing into it. It is mor likely that it is the shift bushing under the shifter (just to the back of the shifter) that is worn.
