The installation procedure for the guide plate is described in TM-22,23. Basically stick the transmission in 5th and 6th and make sure the guide plate is resting against the shift leaver.

Print those 2 pages and bring it to the dealer, and ask why they didn't do that.

Hi what does TM-22,23 stand for? Can you give me a link to that so I can print it?

Thanks,
Duane

TM stands for Transaxle and Transmission, which is the section of the service manual where this information is located. Here is a link where you can find the FSM for download http://www.the370z.com/nissan-370z-o...rvice-manuals/

So I printed the pages and took it back to the dealer, they called me today to tell me they made the adjustments and its ready for pickup. They claimed that they had done this already the 1st time, but obviously it wasn't done.

When I got there the service dept was closed so I couldn't talk to them, but when I drove it, I noticed that 5th still doesn't slide in smooth, 6th is now fine, there is no difference in 6th compared to 1 to 4th

There is a noticeable difference when shifting into 5th that its different then the other gears, it does not slide in when pushing to the right you still have to come back to the left a little to get it in.

Also I now see on my shifter there is a nick or chip on the plastic collar, looks like from a wrench or some kind of tool that they used to take it apart, and the leather boot the top is all loose between the top of the leather and the plastic ring, like they didn't put it back together property.

Am I being unreasonable?
What should I do?

Should I drive 1 hour to another dealer and start all over again? Or go back again to local dealer?

I don't think its wrong for me to have it repaired correctly the 1st time. If I take it back again it will be the 5th time in the past month!
