I just called and got an appointment for 8am Tuesday. The grind only
happens about once a day so I'm not optimistic they'll be able to
reproduce it that morning, according to Round Rock Nissan might have to
leave the car there for them to try multiple days..

Read my post.

I had no issue. My main complaint was the i-Keys not working and just casually mentioned that 6th gear was grinding when shifting 5-6. I knew fully well that a new transmission was what was needed, but I have dealth with it for 12,000 miles now (17,000 on the car...problem started @ 5000mi) and probably wouldn't have raised any hell with them if they didn't want to do anything about it. But to my surprise, they kept the car for diagnosis and the next day called and said I had a new transmission on the way.

This new one is extremely quiet, whereas the original one had lots and lots of obnoxious gear noise and clunking from the start, and then the grinding started later. New one is quiet as a church mouse. The dealership I went to gave me no problems whatsoever about replacing it.

Late,
Trav
