emile · 05-28-2008, 04:45 PM

yep 6 weeks for me as well. finally bringing the car in on wed june 4. should be getting a loaner as well since itll be about 2 days worth of labor.

i just hope that everything goes well for this fix and my car. i dont wanna be one of those cases that gets worse AFTER the fix. ill update as it goes along.

***t85konrad*** · 05-28-2008, 05:31 PM

^ well i got my car back, and it feels outstanding, i love it it feels like its supposed to, so smooth and soft, but well see what happens in a month or so, but i only have one problem, there is a dent on my driver door!!! i dont remember it being there, in not sure if its them or me, but they said bring it in tomorrow and see what the service manager says.

emile · 05-28-2008, 06:12 PM

haha yea man. which is why im taking pictures of my car (including mileage) to make sure no one fcks with my car.

thisisdudewhoru · 05-29-2008, 02:47 PM

Just called to see if my parts were in at my dealer and nope. He told me the "ring set" was still on backorder with no eta. He also told me they had ordered several other parts they had ordered to fix the problem that had come in. Is the "ring set" the same thing as the third gear set? I'm just worried about them fixing the wrong thing. But if that was the case, the parts they ordered shouldn't have been on back order.

***nighthawk06Si*** · 06-01-2008, 07:01 PM

so got my car back friday, been driving it around, i haven't gotten one single 3rd gear grind yet. I think it's pretty good, before, 3rd gear wouldn't go in this easily. Feels butter smooth through each gear. hope you guys get your parts in soon cause the grind is gone! :)

for thought to share :)

Yeah, I'm stoked about my fix as well. No grind, no popping out, and buttery smooth

MobiusTech · 06-01-2008, 08:54 PM

ive been waiting 1 month and 1 week so far for parts!!! (5 weeks). WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

KlickityClack07 · 06-01-2008, 11:48 PM

My parts are finally in. Going in Tues. mornin.

Mcgruber · 06-02-2008, 02:31 AM

has anyone gotten the 3rd gear issue problem fixed and still have problems?

i ask because i am wondering haha =)

Vinc84 · 06-02-2008, 02:58 AM

It's been a month since I've gotten my transmission fixed up and I haven't had an issue with it yet, 3rd gear is smooth as butter and the other gears are continuing with not ever giving me a problem.

lastminuteracin · 06-02-2008, 03:42 AM

Im on week 6 or 7 and still no call from the dealer.

I have. It popped out of gear on me twice in the first two days after getting the car back (once just a mile from the dealership).

It's still pretty notchy. I'm not convinced anything is fixed, to be honest, given that it popped out at all. Downshift from 4 to 3 is smoother, but 2 to 3 is still notchy.

The car goes for sale as soon as I get the repairs done.

Airbag malfunction on the passenger side...gotta replace (no reason, no accidents on that or anything).

And the the damage from where someone hit me in the parking lot.

Then...for sale.

damn mike. youve had the worst luck with all this. good luck on your next car man.

scottyk20z3 · 06-02-2008, 12:21 PM

Just got word on Friday my 3rd gear parts (and the parts for my freaking passenger seat) came in

. Dropping it off tonight for them to fix both. Basically it was about 4 weeks for the parts to come in. I'll update you all after i get it back. Sounds like it's pretty much fixed everyone else's problems.

Skyline4life · 06-02-2008, 04:16 PM

When you guys say you are waiting for the parts to come in..did you still have your car? or did they let you take the car home until the parts came in?

emile · 06-02-2008, 06:04 PM

kept my car till it parts came. pointless to have it set there and have to worry about people messin with your ride. with the 2 days that mine will be gone, im gonna be paranoid as hell.

Positive. I saw the old set parts.

And to be honest, it's not popped out once since the following two days after the fix. It's still a bit notchy, but I can deal with that...popping out I can't deal with.

I dunno why it popped out the first few days, but it hasn't since, and I suppose that is all that matters, hey?
