    We have a 1976 (77?) rabbit that had the same gearshift problem;
and, indeed, the same fix cured the problem: Take off the boot around
the gear stick, and there is the "linkage" problem.  However, we were
able to adjust a bit and avoid the purchase of a new shifter at least 
until 70,000 miles.  (The car has 160,000 miles now, works fine, orginal
engine)
