Actually, I haven't heard of anyone losing a transmission that wasn't a factory defect in some way.

So whats the best option if your tranny is grinding (say going in 5th), do you just buy a new tranny from Nissan or buy OEM syncros and rebuild it?

Are you still running OEM fluid? If so, try changing that out first. Will make a pretty big difference.

Ya it was really bad and I did the fluid change made a big difference. But sometimes its just a pain in the a$$ to get it in fifth under WOT. Just something I am thinking about for later if it breaks.
