Bump......... Fo more input

 

when i took my car in they said nothing was wrong with it. its got 19000 miles one and with the warmer weather comin it doesnt seem to be sticking as much. so could it be a temp. issue and/or mileage issue with the tranny?

 

change the fluid and see if that helps, if not prolly your synchros

 

I totally agree......... any shift grinding is abnormal......


allright guys...... i have taken my 2005 evo 8 with 25,000 miles in to a certain mitsu dealer in aurora il..............

i had two major complaints, 1.. a humming whine noise thats getting worse as time goes on. and 2. the shift grinds above 3k rpm.....

they have blown off my concerns as normal. ( i think there warranty index is too high for the month )

i am displeased with this as i have driven other evos that are fine.

probably going to go to another dealer and get the SHAFT again.

keep this coming, lets get our cars running great again!

 

bump you mother ****ers

 

When I have troubles shifting from 1-2, it's usually cold out, but not always. I've resolved to go into neutral for a split second when shifting from 1-2 and that usually results in smooth shifting.

 

yea same thing for me. when its really cold out sometimes that doesnt even work.

 

i have the same problem....

shift are notchy off and on, but i have learned to live with it. AMSoil does help though.

i have 16,000kms on my car never launched raced like 10 times lol.

 

thank god im not the only one with this problem too!I tried to adjust my clutch a lil more and it help..

I also noticed that if I shift above 3k it shifts like butter but when im shifting slowly below 3k sometimes it grinds...Also I noticed that Not too common but I get a 3rd grind too..

 

yea same here about 3k is fine but below isnt so great

 

Bring this back from the dead. I bought my '05 MR with 80k on it a couple months ago and since then I have had the 2nd gear grind. Usually when it's cold it will do it bad. I've changed all the fluids, used the diaqueen 6 spd fluid for the trans and that never helped.

At times it will go into 2nd nicely if I shift smoothly after car warms up but times it's still there. Very annoying. I don't believe it's the synchros because I bought my car from an older guy who NEVER raced the car or really even knew how to drive the car and was the original owner.

I read and I hate that you really can't use any other fluid in an MR.

I will be adding under hood and shifter base ams bushings soon, will this help the notchy shifting in my MR?

 

nytalonTSi, have you replaced your bushings yet? has it helped with your shifts?
