Anyone Notice That In Between Shifts There Is A Transmission 'play' Type Feel And Noise And That The Gears Pop Out Real Quick As You Initiate Shifts. I'm Sure Its Just The Way The Tranny And Clutch Work Together. Normal Drivetrain Play? Wonder If A Hardened Tranny Mount Would Help That? I Guess Our Gears Don't Have Synchros Do They Ss/tc 09' Sedan

 

Repost . But yeah it is normal ..

 

i figured that guess i'll eventually go with tmw short shifter

 

we dont drive lamborghinis we drive cobalts and play is normal. and yes you have synchros or did... for that matter

 

all constant mesh transmissions have su=ynchros it is how the gear is selected to be driven

 

A little off topic but here goes,

anyone notice the 3rd pedal on these cars? It's right next to the brake pedal. My parents have a Cobalt as well (except its an LS not a SC) and it doesn't have it. Also anyone know why the car makes a grinding sound when switching between the gears?

 

Oh man your the biggest n00b ever, when you want to switch gears. You have to press that 3rd pedal "clutch", pull up the hand brake "don't worry your brakes won't lock" & there you go heel-toe, you are now the best driver in the world

 

you sir are an idiot... hes joking, I'm sure with all those mods in his sig, hes still sittin in his drive way reading your instructions on driving manual

 

And I *sincerely* hope YOU are joking! Sarcasm followed by sarcasm

its just a cosmetic pedal.

 

Yep.
I tried using mine once, and my car dropped down to an idle?

 

I took a hack saw and cut it off to save weight.
