That's that a shifter problem, it's a tranny problem.

Sounds to me that your transmission's synchronizes may be worn out of specs...resulting in you car's fifth gear popping out.

I believe this happens bc of the shifter forks... The fork for 5th gear might have gone a little bad causing the gear to pop out... Do you rest your arm on the shift **** while you drive? Do you put any weight on the shifter while it's in gear?
