6091, 2nd gear grind
Posted by Diceman19, Dec-04-03 02:06 PM
sometimes if i quick shift to 2nd gear, it grinds. i know it is directly related to how fast i shift, it is the only gear that does it. i know that it is a prevalent problem but cant find the relative info about it. does anyone have the links to my solutions? thanks!

Synchro. They all get it eventually. Only fix is to replace the synchros. A popular upgrade is the double synchro which lasts much longer than the stock single.

This is why my Talon is not on the road right now.
