Ok, so I've been having an issue with my Evo's transmission since I got it with 12,000 miles on it, and it has 25,000 now. It isn't getting any worse just annoying. I've taken it to the dealership and they have told me they don't see anything wrong. So now I ask the experts which isn't the dealership..
Here are the symptoms.
So what do you guys think? Was thinking of having you guys test it at a meet or something.
Here are the symptoms.
- Shiftying from 1 - 2 is very notchy sometime even grindy especially when cold.
- When shifting and pulling down from first to second it will actually pop out of gear once I put the slightest amount of pressure on it.
- Another thing is that when shifting into first I can feel a slight engagement. This typically happens when I've had it idling in neutral.
- The last thing is what I hear from most people is the engagement point for the clutch is all over the place. It feels like it is either on or off. In reverse I can release the clutch slowly and back up smoothly and consistently, but going from stop to moving forward is not smooth. It is like it is missing the whole mid range of the clutch where it doesn’t engage and when it does my rpms drop drastically and makes it sum what stall. This is typically the problem in traffic since I don't have open road in front of me. I’ve been driving sticks all my life and haven’t had to deal with this type of clutch engagement before. Plus the engagement issue is mostly in the low rpm range 2 – 3k. Above 3 it isn't to bad, but by then the car has enough power to pull thru the rpm drop.
So what do you guys think? Was thinking of having you guys test it at a meet or something.

What are you thinking of doing for the gov? Oh yeah, since I've moved to vegas bro, I met Dan Bajalis. I went over to his house and got my stock uicp/intake put back on and turbo timer removed. Saw his badass evo. He's also got a dd evo IX. Thinkin of putting my stock catback back on too.
