I drove from Boston to LA in my '88 900s and I had great difficulty putting the shifter into 5th like 85% of the time. Had the shifter looked at in Cali and they fixed the problem (a piece had broken off or something). Then randomly on my way back across the country, my girlfriend and I stopped at a Days Inn for the night and I couldn't get it into reverse. The problem was gone the next day and hasn't done it since.
