Hey everyone

Just snagged up a 2004 GT 5 speed

well I don't know much about cars yet - but hoping to soon enough.

my first question is the transmission on this mustang.

first second and third gear make a noise similar to reverse? - I cannot tell anything is wrong with those gear though - I'm hoping its some kinda shift kit?

What do you mean the transmission on this car?

Try google for 2004 mustang 5 speed and your engine. You may have luck that theres not a few different ones, and try a picture.

Not sure if vin would help with trans exact model.

The noise, is it like a clunking kinda? If mustang transmissions are like I've been told (We have a automatic however I've always bought manual cars) could be the syncro's

Try shifting into 1st or 5th before reverse I was always told, one of my prior cars would make a loud bang into reverse, and occasionally into other gears which was totally normal for it's transmission due to no syncro for reverse and I've done that for a few dozen other types of cars.

I'm sure someone can shed light on your other gear issue. Have you checked fluid? that can cause funky issues

well after some research think i answered my question - it appears my transmission has straight cut gears? 1-3?
