I might be completely wrong but could it be that you have broken mounts?
Does your shifter vibrate like crazy?

if all the bushes and linkages and stuff are sound, it would be the detents in the box itself i think

I know on the 2nd gens there are some big metal balls in the housing which keep the gears in there selected loactions as such

Chances are, as long as the 3rd gen GB uses the same principal, that's your problem.
