After getting two gear levers replaced the rattle kept coming back. I've eventually managed to fix it by getting to the root of the problem - the thin washer at the bottom of the gear lever under the car.
You'll see a split pin holding the gear lever to the rod on the gearbox. Remove it together with the thin washer and replace with a thicker steel washer and refit the pin. Problem solved. ( It's the joint right at the bottom of this pic that you're looking for.) Pics from this thread: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=31340 BTW. I've sprayed some Liqui Moly Tacky Lube Spray in there as well for good measure. EDIT: Special thanks to @Freedom who noticed the loose washer.

I tried the washer trick mentioned above with a neoprene washer. There is seriously no space there for another washer (mine was thinner than a dime). Tried for an hour to get it in and then gave up and put it back to stock. Very tight working space too.

Also had the noise above 4K in 3rd-5th gears. 2013 car.
The Perrin reverse collar appears to have solved the noise in my case. One tip: getting the pin back through the hole on the cable terminal is a PITA because the cable terminal is under tension and sits very low. Use a screwdriver or the 3/32 hole punch perrin recommends, to release the cable lock and shift the stick into reverse. the cable is temporarily de-tentioned and then it's much easier to replace the holding pin back through the hole on the cable terminal. |

I was having this issue as well, and I finally came up with a really easy fix. It's more expensive by far, but a lot easier, and neither the gear shift knob nor the road noise bothers me anymore.
I installed a 700Watt stereo system. No more issues! |

Size of washer? Part #?
So... anyone know what Size of washer? Part #? Width?
I don't want to take it apart only to find out I don't have the exact dimension needed to fit the washer... Car would be out of service for a loooong time in that case. |

1)No you have to do it from underneath.
2)Any washer that fits is fine, it's a bit tricky finding the right one.

It's not that bad from the bottom. Simply lift the car up.
