This seems to be a problem that is popping up more and more. I now have a issue with the new trans. 2nd to 3rd grinds at low rpm. I hope this isn't a problem that I have to deal with for the life of the car.

2 to 3 happened to my boy DaineZ couple weeks ago..
he had to pay the dealer though it wasn't through warranty...

interesting...i get the grind and i don't even skip gears.

it usually happens on 3rd, and 5th. you guys suggest bringing it now or when it starts happening more often?

right now i say it happens 15-20% of the time. i thought i was shifting incorrectly but looks like i'm not.
