Well my trans is having issues. I just replaced the trans fluid maybe 3 months ago, maybe 4k miles, but it just started happening.
Today I was driving to school and it started slipping out of gear occasionally. It goes into gear fine with no grinds or anything, but as I let out the clutch it pops out of gear. If I hold the shifter in gear using a little bit of pressure until the clutch is fully released, it stays in gear fine. I was hoping somehow the bump stops on my tri ax came loose or something, but I checked the shifter out and it seems fine. I called a few mechanic buddies who all said it sounds like my syncros are going out and to start saving up for a rebuild.
Any ideas on what might be going on? I don't know much about transmissions. I know the t45 isn't the strongest trans, but I have never powershifted it and I was hoping it would hold up better. Thanks
