I was driving on the highway yesterday and out of nowhere my car popped into neutral out of 5th gear. after this happened for the first time ever I noticed that about every 15 to 30 seconds it would want to pop out of gear. after this started happening I kept my hand on the shifter to hold it into 5th gear. I could feel the clutch slip so I need a new one.
