Let's get back to basics. At what speed are you driving it in 5th gear. And at what speed are you driving it in 6th? Also, what are your rpm's at when in both of those gears?
For instance, if you're driving around town in 5th or 6th gear, then darn-tootin' you're gonna get a shake due to the engine lugging and chugging at such a low rpm.
