When I shift fast into 2nd gear it will grind for 1/4 of a second and its not that loud. When I drive normal it doesnt do it. What could cause the problem? Ford drove the car and said the syncros are fine. Its really frustrating, its getting harder and harder to shift into gear. Any suggestions?

sounds like a synchro. My 97 did the same exact thing, now I have the trans gutted in my basement and i'm putting in new synchros

Same thing happens with my 96 GT.

It worries me.

well think about it. what gear do you slam the most and hardest?


I can't wait to get my trans fixed and back in. It's solid just needs the fuggin synchros

disadvantage to manual, cost

monkeydude3

not neccessarily. Manuals the parts are cheap and if you take care of them they are good. Automatics are far more expensive to fix. it's a trade off

When you shift into second pull down and to the left hard like your starting a lawnmower like shift hard, I mean hard this maybe something as simple as setting your snub on your shifter. Thats what I have to do right now because i've been to lazy lately to adjust mine, it's always second too.
