This is a question about a characteristic difference in --manual tranny--
shift knobs.

What makes the difference (in feeling) between a shift knob in a Civic
versus the one in an Accord? The (1998 LX) Accord shift knob does not
allow any vibrations (when you rest your hand on it) while you clearly get
the vibrations and the "buzz"es when you rest your hand on a (1994 EX) Civic
shift knob?

Is there any way to take care of the vibrations and make it feel smooth? A
friend just bought a used Protege and i noticed the same silly
uncomfortable vibrations on the shift knob in his when i test-drove it,
while i remember another Protege feeling perfectly smooth in that regard.

Any way to stop the vibrations and make the shift knob feel better? Thanks
a buch in advance,
