✅ Yes — loose o r misaligned linkages cause:

Shifting delays

Sloppy feel

Difficulty finding gears

🔧 Faulty selector rods o r worn bushing mounts in linkage cables are commonly reported, especially after 20,000–30,000 km.

🧰 Mechanics often adjust o r replace cables manually, since dealerships don’t stock spares regularly.
