5th Gear Grindinggg!!! Wtf
I have an 04 6mt and last two or three days during aggressive driving mostly, when I try and do a quick shift from 4-5th car wont go into 5th without a huge grinding noise and jamming it into gear. now people will say you have to use the clutch, obviously i know that. im pretty good with stick and have driven it for a while etc. car has 26k miles on it. But even if im not driving and the car is just sitting and I want to show someone what it sounds like, all i have to do it attempt to put it in 5th, and it makes the same exact noise. Loud grinding noise like many nooby MT drivers im sure do. I took it to a tranny shop and they said it seemed like the tranny synchros in 5th were messed up. any ideas? covered under warrantee right? any help is appreciated. thanks

i made an appointment at Santa Monica Infiniti for Tuesday 930 AM. Hopefully all works out well. its pissing me off tho. I have to double clutch every time to go into 5th, when shifting from 4th. But if im going from 6th to 5th, even if i double clutch, it still grinds like a **** and people turn and look like wtf is wrong w/ his car?

it really does suck to drive like that. everytiime i go into 5th and I hear that i just cringe. Cant really stay off the highways, i live in Los Angeles, nothing is close enough to take streets. but i guess all the traffic helps me stay out of 5th. but i was wondering, does the grinding hurt the transmission at all?
