Just picked up a T5 for pretty cheap and trying to get it all sorted out. Pulled the cover off and all the gears look to be in good shape and the sliders operate as they should. The interlock plate was in two pieces in the bottom of the case so I bought a new one of those. Put it all back together and it works properly between 1st-4th gears, but the shifter wouldn't budge for 5th/reverse. Pulled everything back apart and tried to engage the 5th/reverse lever manually and it is not working right. All the parts look to be there, but it gets in a bind when you try to move it. I can reach down and slide the idler gear fork over and get it to engage properly, but just moving the lever will not work.
