5th gear scratch (not a grind)

JARblue

Nissan told me to go suck an egg when I asked for transmission replacement under warranty a few years back. Over 100K miles now and no change. It seems in my experience the scratch is most noticeable with a quicker shift (4-5) on a cold transmission at lower RPMs. I've also found that a slower shift or double clutch with proper rev match pretty much eliminates any noise regardless of the temps or speed.
