So you didn't do the required tasks to seal up the shifter on the transmission and wonder why something isn't perfect? There's no reason to put up a bashing thread title b/c of a mistake you made.

Here's you a new thread title

 

LOL Moderator Own-age !! I still dont see how he would be smelling tranny fluid unless he tried topping it off while the shifter was out or is beating on the clutch and getting that burnt grilled cheese smell we all got learning to drive a Manual.

 

I am beginning to learn that smell very much. It might be because you are beating on your car now more than you used to with the short throw in there and you are burning up your clutch. I mean my clutch is burnt up and it makes a nasty smell. So that might be your problem.

 

+ eleventy bazillion

 

Thanks to the ones that tried to help.

I'll pull it back out and seal it again to see if that's it. If not then I guess I will put the stock one back in and see what happens.

 

I get the irony, you smell tranny fluid, you title your thread Pro5.0 stinks.

I'm not sure if you guys have even noticed, but these thread titles reach alot more people than you think.

Google the title to this thread. "How do I buy/use RTV"

It pops up first result. And when someone types in Pro5.0 reviews or Pro5.0 stinks this thread could have popped up and would paint the product in a negative light. You guys would be surprised at how many Companies have people searching forums trying to add input of help on their products when someone says negative things about them.

I know you didn't mean to, but to others it could have looked that way. Everyone has their opinion and you're welcome to complain about a flaw or problem in a product anytime, but not without reason. But anyways, let's continue the discussion. Grab a shifter gasket, and you'll be on your merry way! Good luck!
