Mine makes the 'sound' of a grind going into 2nd when slamming it extremely hard, but it doesn't actually grind.

 

bump

k transmission is under warranty, they ordered a new one...however my clutch is a bit burnt so they suggested i get a new one. meh.... Might as well.

what PISSES ME OFF TO NO END!!!!<-----------X2!!!oneelevenone!!11!1

they broke one of my wheel studs, blamed my aftermarket wheels and say its 150.00 to replace.

Now wtf is up with that CRAP?

 

i get reverse grind

 

signed my 3rd and 4th are messed up

 

more power then any one on this thread (hell any one) and my trans never grinds....

its called pushing the clutch in before shifting.

try it, works wonders!!!

foolish people.

 

this guy wants a cookie. This transmission is plagued with grinding like no other with very experienced drivers.

 

Oh, yeah duh. thanks man i totally forgot to push in the clutch when i shift! haha!....



*******.

 

I was thinking the same thing when i re-read it.

"wow... you solved my problem! hallelujah ! praise jesus!"

idiots

btw is that clutch pedal on the left or right? pictures please.

update:

Dont have to pay for the bolt they broke, bitched enough and they covered it themselves.

 

you should have asked them which way they were trying to turn the lug nut when it broke lol...

 

i get tgrind into second a good bit of the time and every once inawhile its a little sticky to get into the other gears.. sometimes it'll be a PITA to get into reverese too.. does anyone now what problem this even is though? clutch, tranny, shifter?

 

I get 9th gear grindage.

 

No grinding here, and I shift pretty swiftly/hard to prevent glazing the clutch like in the how-to. hehe

 

i have a spec stage 3+ clutch and i still grind. its the tranny not the clutch.

 

X100000

Its the tranny... dunno if it is the fluid or what but evidently f40s are worse

i was thinking that... god it pisses me off since i replaced the brakes the weekend before i took it in....

How the hell?

 

i learned how to drive stick with this car and i used to grind the hell out of the gears when i was learning and my tranny is fine. and im pushing some extra Hp out of it too and no problems here.

 

epic bump

My 2nd gear was grinding even during the test drive, however i bought mine with 12,000 miles on it so it could have been destroyed prior. I'll find out when my new tranny is in.

 

I signed in on this one. I doubt GM will listen much but its still good to get this stuff out there.

My problem is mostly third, no matter what I do, it has a slight grind into third, and on occassion, will grind HORRIBLY into second... If it grinds into second, every other gear grinds. I'm serriously just considering getting a different tranny and putting it on the car. I'm more than sure if I let the syncros wear themselves to nothing and ask for a warrenty repair they will blame it on my driving habbits...

 

I drive my car hard as hell and can honestly say other than driver error have never ever gotten grind.

 

Clutch and Tranny arrived. W00t. shouldnt be long before i have my car back. God i hate driving my wife's corolla. Its like having a bullseye on my head in Atlanta traffic stating "run my rice ass over".

 

No grinding here going on two years. Around what point in the cars lifespan are you guys noticing this?

 

First grind when i test drove my cobalt at 10,000ish miles. Could have already been there by the previous owner but thats REALLY low miles to destroy something.

I dont buy new vehicles since negative equity is dumb.

 

I get the grind as well in 2nd & 4th gears, it also makes a "clunk" noise when I shift into those gears rather than the nice firm pocket feeling in the others. Does anyone else have that problem?

 

The 2.4 started grinding around 30k miles. The SS/SC has a bit over 20k and hasn't done it a bit. Different transmissions though, of course.

 

That will have no effect on the grinding if your tranny is defective and has this problem. Obviously, you didn't get one of the deffective ones. How does glazing your clutch have even the slightest resemblance to the topic here?

Yes.

 

Thank god for this guy.
