Hit about 38,000 miles on my 2003 and massive grinding 3rd and 5th gear and they will not cover it since it's a couple of months out of warranty.

Isn't the warranty 5 yrs / 60,000 miles (Powertrain) ?

I've been there. Leave it at Nissan overnight and have them drive it in the morning. My tranny did the EXACT same thing. It only did it when it was cold then i disappeared after a couple blocks. Eventually it stopped doing it altogether for like a month and I thought I was homefree. It came back 100X worse and would not go away at all. My warranty ends in a month. I cannot imagine how it would have felt to get the shaft on that one.

49k - original tranny - 6sp/manual - no issues... 1st is hard to get out of when cold, but that's only when it's below freezing and not warmed up.

03 6mt Slight grind going into second when it is cold out. For the guys that have replaced their tranny out of warranty what kind of prices can be expected. I am keeping my fingers crossed it doesn't happen but would like to know a good ball park area.
