Does anyone else's third gear ever feel like it's stuck?
 
Anyone else with IX experiencing your third gear feeling sticky when pulling it out into neutral? Sometimes it feels like it's stuck and you gotta use extra force to "unlock" it...

Could it be your under the hood bushings? I would def chance the Fluids. tranny/tcase/diff

Arkitek Apr 10, 2008 11:39 AM

the bushing could be the problem....or your fluids..

no... if it grinds change your fluid... if fluid changing doesnt help it is the synchros... the stock trannys are garbage man

My 6 speed IX tranny is very smooth.. kind of like butter. :D

It's very easy to go in and out of gear.

But then again, I also changed the tranny oil after the first 1200 miles. Lots of metal shavings floating around. Then I got mocked by people here, saying "why would you change your drivetrain fluid after only 1200 miles. You should wait till you have 30k... blah blah blah."

Duh.

Another trans thread...Change your fluid, I prefer Redline MT90. 3qts. and a pump{thumbup}

I get the same thing some times, but just when I'm being lazy about getting into the clutch good.
