Manual transmission models of the MR2 Spyder tend to slip out of gear while driving. This is because the bushings that support the shift lever wear out very quickly, and prevent the shifter from placing the vehicle firmly in gear.
The remedy for the issue is to replace the bushings.
If left unchecked, the transmission may be subject to undue and premature wear.
