The linkage does have a crappy bushing that you most likely find worn away( or rather you won't find it). This bushing helped the linkage move freely. Once gone, it's metal on metal. You could have a rather simple fix on your hands.
Have you heard any slight Knocks or vibrations near the shift handle ? That was the first symptom I had. Best of luck.
