So...yesterday my 2001 ST, which I already know has transmission issues, started doing something else odd.
The column shifter seems loose and it became hard to get it into park. I figured out that if I drop it all the way down, then move it all the way back up I can get it into park, but it's awkward.
I also happened to find a single bolt lying on my driver's side floorboard that may or may not be related to the now-loose column shifter. It's fairly short and has a star-shaped torx head on it.
Is this something that fell out of my shifter and resulted in the new looseness? Is it unrelated? Any thoughts on this fun little ST mystery?
