Just got home from a trip south with a few friends. One couple with an 08 ZM BMW, another couple with a 96 328 convertible, and my wife and I with the 98 B. My shift linkage let go approaching Port Allegheny. We managed to find third gear and limped to a shop where as we were treated unbelievable.Three young guys who were eager to work on a car they had never seen before.They put her on the hoist, lowered the sub frame about four inches to give them room to work. and McGivered a fix . There is a Hiem joint on the linkage which basically just disintegrated.Actually a really bad design from Fiat.$50.00 later we were back on the road and had a great week on exceptional roads.
