unfortunately... no. I guess a TSB is not the same as a recall and the dealer doesnt HAVE to replace the part, and if they do they dont HAVE to do it free of charge. My dealer, is one of the ones that wont. So I will have to tolerate it until its finished then get it rebuilt. [&:]

I don't know that that would be an option brudda.. if you wait you could end up shearing all the teeth off of the gears.. There are plenty of shops around that could probably replace the synchro for you that probably won't charge you as much in labor as a dealership would. Unless your car's still under warranty, which I'm doubting since you're an 02 GT. A lot less expensive to replace a synchro than it is to replace a tranny.. [&:]
