I had an exedy clutch installed about a year and a half ago and I have just replaced my transmission within the past 8 months in my EF. I am noticing grinding going from 2nd to 3rd. Anyone have any suggestions on what could be wrong? It doesn't feel like anything serious but I can be wrong. It grinds a little and pops right into 3rd. All ofther shifts are fine. Thanks

 

synchro

 

Do i have to replace my synchros?

 

Its a honda tranny, get used to it. haha seriously it is a common problem for 2nd to 3rd grinding. it s bad syncro. I would not worry about it too much unless it gets really bad. My LS tranny has been doing it for years.

 

ok.. i just wanted to make sure it was nothing too serious

 

or you could put in gm sycromesh

 

As long as it is not hard to get into 3rd, don't worry about it.

 

your tranny could also be loose,check all bolts.i had a few fall out that i didnt even notice until i was screwing around with it one day.then it went away.
