When shifting gear. My gear would grind in third and fourth gear. What is the problems? and how much to get it fix?
regardless of when it grinds the problem is the synchros in the tranny. Switching tranny fuild to oem or somthing else could make it shift better, but it won't fix the problem, the only fix is new synchros.

To the thread creator, what type of grind are you experiencing?

But I've had issues with cars having a grind going into a particular gear and when we pulled out the transmission we discovered one of the teeth on the pressure plate from the clutch was broken. Another time we found a pressure plate bolt broken off and lodged itself into the clutch preventing a smooth shift into a gear; each time causing a grind because it was being forced in. So there could many things beyond our knowledge.
