its his synchros in his transmission....try searching for your problem before you post...you will have to take apart the transmission and replace the syncrhos if he wants it to stop. That or he can try a fluid called "synchro-mesh" made by GM....good luck

research first....
ask ? later.......

yes, you might as well tell your friend to buy a new tranny.


he can drive on it for a long time but it gets annoying when it grinds.
