Now I'm trying to fix that habit, but guess is to late... I do 1-2-3-4-5-----it bites(even at 53 km/h, 33 MPH) then to 6th.

Now I'm planning on boosting this car next year with Sasha boosted performance turbo. So you guys think I Should wait till then fix this issue? So far in double clutching and giving enough times and the bite/grin don't take place.


Car specs
09 6mt sedan
No mods
~124000 km/ 77 000 miles

All mantience is up to date.

Ps: went to delear they told me I'm out of powertrain by time and also 10 000 km...
ABSOLUTELY. Get that ish fixed. I had the same problem. Well, not the same...I was in the military, and had my roommate look after my car when I was gone. He emailed me saying that 5th gear grinded...then 2 days later, another email saying that 5th was f*@&ed and 6th didn't even register. It was the syncro gears, 5th was galled, and shifting to 6th was like shifting to neutral. Happened around 85k miles on the drivetrain.
