Could be a lot of things:
  • shift tower
  • 2nd gear synchros
  • Ok, that's pretty much all I can think of right now...

Why? So you can get another car and then let go of that one when the first sign of a problem?

Let's see. You've got a high perf car ... that you added Stage 2 to ... that you added non-GM aftermarket parts to ... that because of all those add on parts dictates you probably drive the car fairly hard .... and now you want to dump the car?

Besides, who's gonna want to buy your car after they test drive it and see how 2nd gear is all effed up .....

if you have less than 60,000 miles your good on the warranty work.

had mine go out as well and grind like crazy when i first got it. Check the problems and service as well as drivetrain. There is even a petition about it i created.
