SOURCE: NO 5TH GEAR IN MY 1995 MITS 3000,NO NOISE,NO PROBLEMS SHIFTING
I have the same problem. on the passenger side under the fender you will have access to the transmission. Remove the cap on the end. You will need to drain the transmission fluid and replace all the gears in the end cap if damaged hopefully they are not and you can just tighten up the nut. What happens is a nut comes loose and backs off the pressure on the bearings and you loose 5th. I removed the entire transmission and opened it up. There is nothing wrong with the other gears, because your problem is with the 5th gear synchronizer assembly. I let mine go too long and I'm having to replace everything. Make sure you put the appropriate torque on the nut and hit it with a hammer to lock it down. This should really be designed with a different method of keeping that nut in place. It's costing me lots of time and now money at the stealership. Good LUCK.

Sounds like a bad countershaft bearing. The trans will need removed and disassembled to fix it.
SOURCE: jumps in and out of 5th gear overdrive,doesnot slip
change trans fluid and filter
Testimonial: "First time I have gotten and answer other than "that will cost about $1500 to $3200 to fix"."

If the whine is there than the main bearing is already worn adding fluid will not save it, you will have to swap it or rebuild it. sorry i know you were hoping for something better.
Testimonial: "Well, thanks for your assessment, and it sounds as if this will be an expensive repair. Could you give me an estimate? Many thanks, Chester Brezniak"
