A4 5-speed transmission issue?
I recently purchased my '97 A4 Quattro 2.8 5-speed, and i noticed when i was cruising on the highway in 5th gear, i sometimes catch the stick flicking subtly every now and then. The stick is in gear, so i dont know if there is something wrong or not. The car has 139,000 miles. Also there is no surge in rpms in the vehicle? It may need a new clutch soon anyways. Any thoughts?

I've noticed that in every manual trans car i've ever driven. Some worse than others (the stick on my '89 Bronco seemed like it moved a foot sometimes lol) but I can't think of why one gear would be worse than others? I only every really noticed it in 3rd, 4th, and 5th, because I never bother to take my hand off the shifter in 1st or 2nd most of the time.
How much movement are we talkin about here (distance wise) ?

its just flexing in your drivetrain. if its really excessive just get some new mounts. you can get cheap OEM mounts that will last another 80k miles, or you can get some from 034 which will last untill your car wont run anymore. i have 034 street density mounts all around and love them. somewhat more vibration in the car but shifting is so smooth.
