I used Penzoil syncromesh in my EG with GSR swap. I had a 3rd gear grind and I didnt notice too much of a difference using this penzoil product. I've driven about 100+miles on this and it still grinds. How long do I have to wait for this to start working? Or do I have a SERIOUS problem with the trans? Please help

 

when I had my b16 ef, it had a 3rd gear grind. it took alot more then 100 miles for it to go away. I ended up selling it and the guy that bought it said it went away. my guess is that it took close to 1000 miles for it to work. be patient.

 

lol
its not suppose to work miracles
if your tranny synchro is shot its shot
no ifs and or buts
you need a need synchro the syncromesh doesn't work wonders it just helps a little

I think its either a hit or miss. I thought mine was pretty bad and it ended up fixing it. I'm sure down the road its gonne need a syncro but not for a long time. I'm not trying to keep his hopes up since it might not even help.

 

i know it doesn't work miracles...but i have heard that it works for people who had TERRIBLE grinds. I just had a slight grind. I guess I'll just have to wait it out and see what happens. I know I'm gonna eventually need a new tranny or rebuilt tranny. But I'm just hoping that this synchromesh helps this grind out just a little bit

 

It takes several hundres miles to really start to work well, also are you using the friction modefied or regular?
