Grind in 2nd 06' MR
Hello I just bought my 06' evo mr with 41k. And when cold 2nd gear grinds and slightly goes away when it warms up what can I do to fix this?

I have no records of that but will do the fluids, thanks.
One more question um gonna do the drivetrain fluids I was wondering when changing the transaxle fluid it's also the front diff fluid in the same case right? The only other ones are transfer case and rear diff right?

Yeah I would get all new fluids. Even the c6 vettes have this problem.
The grind is normal, no guarantee the grind will go away when you change the fluids. I bought my MR from an older guy and even after replacing the fluid using OEM Diaqueen it's so bad in the cold I have to skip 2nd gear till the trans warms up.
It's just the thick gear oil, that's why it gets better as it warms up.
You can also adjust the clutch pedal, this helped me get rid of the grind completely after warm up.

My 06 MR with 53 000k does the same *&$*#@ thing. I have the stock trans fluid but it need to be replace. It is very annoying when it's -13 F outside ... takes a lot of time to warm up....
Obviously, no one will agree with the best oil to put on a MR.
I guess i will use the oem again ...
