Maybe yours was originally an auto and got converted using 4th gen parts.

Ahhhhhhhh I never even considered the possibility of that!

That could well be the case... Neither the engine, the gearbox or the ECU are original, so I reckon you're bang on :geek:

That was my first thought also (the auto - manual conversion I mean, not using your shirt shifter :lol: )
