Ok fellas, this stared a few days ago. when I shift into 2nd and 3rd my trans will grind. So I have to put it back into neutral and very gently shift into gear. does anyone know why this is happening? My guess is a synchro or the clutch is going out??

Any help would be great. Thanks, Dominic

Try changing your oil. I remember reading someone on Zilvia had something similar, and that fixed it.

Yea I will change the fluid asap. And I heard that if you can go through the gears easy when the car is off then your synchros are fine and it's your clutch. Is this true?

i dont know about the car off thing i know that the syncros help when the car gets put into neutral while driving before switching a gear it matches the rpms of the wheels

just try some syncromesh in your trans fluid it might help ive never tried it
