I also have a 03 with a manual transmission. Had the same problem with the shift knob and could not find an aftermarket replacement. As you probably know, the knob is not the screw in type but more of a box within a box connection. I ended up buying the knob from the dealer ($125). Have had good luck with the manual. Unfortunatly Getrag does not support a parts program for the transmission. If you do have trouble with gear engagement have a transmission shop check the linkage which is often the problem.

Have not had that problem. Sounds like something other than the transmission. I try to fill up around the one quarter tank marker. I seem to recall that the fuel pump is in the tank, and if you run a fair amount at the empty mark, you can damage the fuel pump as it could suck air. This might be your problem.
