Been doin some gear banging?
Synchro gettin worn. 2nd gives up first, it's the gear that gets used the hardest.

ive only had it a month and got in 1 race (with an 02 gt all stock and won by a half car!)should probably take it in forwarranty work huh

YES!!! Does anyone in here search for old topics about trans problems in the TR3650's???? Because if you did you will note the TSB i give out everytime i read one of these. The syncro's have too many teeth on them and they dont mesh well. So the rebuild kit for youre trans have alot less teeth and they mesh great.

my 2nd gear is a little bit "notchey" too.

wieeerd. huh dan? but mine only does it when the car isnt warmed up.

dan

well, mine does it worse when the car isn't warmed up, when its pretty warmed up its almost not noticeable.

Like Casper said, there is a specific TSB about it. Get it fixe d for free...

Mine does the same thing when cold. When it's like 32° out it is notchy. When warmed up it shifts like butter. I my take it to ford for warranty but I heard they may not like a aftermarket shifter. Either way it is not a problem...I just am real easy till she warms up.

I asked this a while back but i don't think i got an answer. Is the tsb free if i don't have a warranty. If not how nuch to get it done. My second gear is crapping out on me.
