ok so a notice downshifting from 3-2 it grinds sometimes, the clutch is deff fully down when it happens. has anyone had an issue like this? also i notice latly its hard to get into first i usually will have to try putting it into 2nd or 3rd befor i can just put it into first if that has anything to do with it.

 

sounds like a synchro.

 

New clutch or other work on same?

 

Try changing the fluid. But keep the OEM fluid in there. I tried redline, and I think its time for a synchro. Def not worth ruining the trans to save $20 on fluid.

 

just had this happen to me i thought it was the slave cylinder or the clutch master cylinder but the dealer said its the ball in the shifter and i read a few people had that problem so a short throw just might fix it

 

Do you blip the throttle when you downshift? If you rev match and your still having issues getting into gear you've got a problem.

 

I just had this problem. Roll pin was sheared off and caused some other problems. Service manager just called me to tell me they're giving me a new transmission.

 

i have even tried clutchless shifting and i still couldnt find the gears but im not worried about anything because of my warrenty

 

Mine just started doing this occasionally! I thought it was just because I have a lil too much fun. Ill have to check the pins on the tranny portion then check the cup pieces again. I already broke one, wouldnt surprise me to have broken another.

 

Ahhh information i like itt

 

there needs to be a recall on this. it seems to be a problem

 

the connections to the bottom of my shifter is fine, i just broke the one on the bottom of the shifter ball but replaced it and it did the a few times befor that happened anyway. ill have to check out the connections to the transmission itself i guess maybe that broke or something.

these trannys dont handle that much power to begin with

 

just try to baby it because if not it will go completely limp and not want to do ****. you could try adjusting the cable on the left, that might help

 

yeahhh know i am. if i cant get it by adjusting the cables, which i actually have another set from mezz's auto swap, by the weekend its going to the dealer next week

 

i usually rev match when i down shift so try that...but when i shift from 4-5 it grinds a lil,this happens once in a great while though

 

honda shifter ^^^^ haha

 

i always rev match well maybe not always but, and its only into 2nd for the most part downshifting
\so i been avoiding that

 

i have this on my '01 cav. i tried replacing the clutch. didnt help. my mechanic said the synchros are worn and need to be replaced.

 

byt any feedback?

 

I had replace the 1 piece on the bottom of the shifter already, wouldnt surprise me to find something else broken lol.

 

just got it back from the dealer it was the roll pin, i guess the roll pin sheaded off at the tranny. sad thing was the dealer was like it wont go into 5th or revers so i had to show them how to adjust the cables haha. gotta love them chevy dealers. they tried telln me i needed all new linkage and a shifter til i told them id do it myself then they just fixed it haha.

 

Nice!! Ill have to check mine out then

 

Fixed under warranty?

 

haha warrenty i wish. its an 06 with 75k no warrenty =( fixed outa my wallet lol
