Thumbs up Getting my 3rd gear fixed!!

Well, I own a 07 Si with about 20k miles on it..I've been havin the 3rd gear grind issues every once in a while. It's very annoyin and seems to happen whenever there is somebody in the car and it makes me look like I can't drive. There's no point in tryin to explain a third gear issue to a chick who knows nothin about cars..i've tried it..but anyway today I decided to get my oil changed so when I was at the dealer I mentioned to the service advisor that I had the 3rd gear issue. He was like yea there is a bulletin on that. So he said that they would change the tranny fluid. I was like damn in my head cuz I knew that would most likely only be a temporary solution. So when the tech came to take the car for a spin I hopped in too and we were tlkin. He was a real cool guy, he drives a RSX and knows all about the 3rd gear issue. So we were tlkin and I told him that I dont wanna be coming back for the same issue over and over. He was like yea and told me he would check the tsb and see if my vin fell in the range. I knew that it did. So after he changed my oil and brought the car back he told me that he ordered a new third gear set for me..Words can't really explain how happy I am..So in a few days I should be getting a call to drop off my car.


Here are some pics of my Si...
