Interesting. Would it be similar linkage in an auto box? Perhaps not in the gearing, but somewhere along the drive train? Mine is getting increasingly clunky when I get the throttle on or off

I'd look at when the fluid was last changed before investigating the shifter (which is often a cable on older autoboxes, and more recently electronic).

Have a look for something loose or worn bush.
Look at the colour of the fluid, I'd replace the fluid with the proper spec fluid. Look how to fully drain the fluid, as it can be more than take a drain plug out.

I replaced some original plastic shift linkage bushings of my 9-5 with ones from Maptun. I was sure the gearbox was failing as second (and occasionally fourth) gear wasn't staying on, turns out the worn out linkage wasn't engaging the gears properly.
Shifting is one of the better ones I've had in Saabs, ie. not as good as in BMW's etc., but at least it doesn't feel like my old c900 any more and I have 5 functioning forward gears.
