Description of the problem | I initially had issue getting into and out of the 3rd and 4th gear (manual transmission car). I could feel gears grinding during shifting (with the clutch fully depressed). The dealer replaced the third gear. After the fix, the car now has difficulty getting into and out of gear 2 and 3. This problem is intermittent but is more noticeable after the initial start-up of the car, especially if the weather is cold (50f or colder). With the clutch fully pressed, i can still feel the gear rotating and grinding during shifting. When the car is cold, a lot of force is needed to shift the car into 2nd and 3rd gear. The shifting issue is less noticeable when once the car has been operating for 20mins. |
