Default Need Help with Shift ****!

So my Shift **** is the stock A4 shift ****. Now when I "rally" or drive fast it seems to kinda turn to the right a bit making it off center. is there anyway to tighten it down or anything?

Wrap a washcloth around it and use channelock pliers to give it another 350 degree turn. Or remove it, wrap the lever's threads with plumber's tape, and then reinstall. Either one will tighten it up - just turn it as far as you can.
