As much as it pains me to agree with the majority, I have to in this case.

WHY?!

it happens at 7.8K+ rpms..... Ud have to be racing someone to duplicate the issue.

I fixed mine with Amsoil and by slowing down the shift into 2nd.

I can help you grind 2nd...

akronmusician413 · 10-16-2008, 08:42 PM

has anyone ever tried to put a car into reverse at like 20+ mph while going forward???

lovecheese · 10-16-2008, 08:45 PM

Wont let you, there's a sliding lock that won't allow you to go over there over 5 mph :P

But for the OP.... How old are you? Get caught and you'll be in lots and lots of trouble.

akronmusician413 · 10-16-2008, 09:17 PM

it would be pretty funny to watch someone at the dealership riding with him and see him purposely grind a gear to get work done lol

if the guy called you out on it you would be screwedddddddddddddd

Pdivizzle0112 · 10-16-2008, 09:21 PM

lol you have to know the secrets behind warranty fraud..
i work at a dealership so i know..

will i tell? of course not. thats irresponsible.

im a technician so i know how to destroy things. its part of the job.

the other half is fixing the destroyed things...

by the way if you deliberatly damage your car attempting to get it fixed, you can end up in jail..

its a serious offense nowadays, especially in california

lovecheese · 10-16-2008, 09:21 PM

I think this kinda deserves a lock, as it's a fraud type thing.!
