mines doing the same, but its only loose in one direction, had a look under gear lever and the spring thats fitted must be wearing out or the plastic bush has worn (what i think anyway) might be the same on yours?

if its the same as mine then its not gearbox end, its the gear selector, lift up your gear lever boots and see whats loose under there
