So, someone posted a question regarding people who got their fluids replaced...
Was wondering if anyone had any feed back on this?

Basically, for all of those, and there are lots who brought their si in about third gear grind and got new tranny oil that (masked) the problem.... Is it going to be pretty likely that we can get this tsb applied to our car if we bring in the slip regarding when it was first identified....?

Funny thing also, i brought my si in this friday to get an oil change and the tranny seemed super smooth after leaving... Hope these guys didn't see the tsb and lubed me up so they don't have to see me for a while... in any event, i plan to bring in my slip where they found the issue and put in different tranny oil ... Thoughts anyone?

I mean, the logic is .. this is a hardware issue that is recognized....
Oil masked it and didn't fix it and for those who got the oil replacement... They should get the actual fix...

Hmmm, also my si is making a noise ... increased throttle anywhere from third gear on starting at 3krpm .. it is an increasingly louder whine ...
Sounds like :
YouTube - 3rd gear pull with PAR Straight gears in
YouTube - Straight Cut Gears
but not sooo loud...
But yeah, when he backs off the gas and that jerky whine...
I hear all of that? is it also a part of this bad synchro...

Never heard this sound before in any manual tranny and it sounds like something is off in the tranny to me? Bad synchro?
