4th gear vibrating?

Inframidi · 10-12-2008, 06:57 PM

I'll shift 1>2>3>4 all at about 3000 RPM and my fourth gear will vibrate the shifter a lot. This only happens as soon as I shift. None of my other gears do this. Could my syncros be worn out already?!?! My car's brand new with 1700 miles on it.

My car actually does this as well, im at 81000 miles (2006 Fiji civic si HFP), and I recently did the 3rd gear repair, with a new clutch and it still vibrates in fourth gear.

The car doesn't vibrate, nor can you see the shifter vibrate, it is interminttent and only if you touch the shifter while in fourth to feel it.

I think it is normal since there's so many of us with this characteristic.

Here's more poeple:

Bump. Anyone else have any input?

I have it too on my '07 Si. Sounds like it might be common?
