2nd and 3rd gear has been notchy. I am now at 16K and had the tranny fluid changed to redline MTL, it does improve the feel of the shifting, much more smoother

I just had my tranny warratied at 30,000 miles ( a week ago) for 3rd and 4th locking out...and believe it or not, my brother, who has a 2002 Type-S RSX had his shifter forks and all gears replaced. It locked out of EVERY gear while cruising ar 30 mph in my hood. He got that warrantied about a month ago.

Meanwhile I am going in tommarow to pick my car up!

No 'major' problems here (EP3), the only complaint I have is 1st to 2nd, which feels a bit notchy at times. The cable shifter hasn't really grown on me since I've owned the car, but it's 'tolarable'

Mine wont shift 3rd when it's cold, and second can sometimes be a pain in the ***... as soon as I get my integra back on the road it's goin in the shop. My friends 2k2 is still smooth as ever...

2nd gear on my rsx is not as smooth as all other gears but nothing major. It's not like i can't shift into 2nd gear or it's popping out.
