Tranny repair: 3rd gear fixed, 5th/6th gears broken!
Okay, so I just had my transmission replaced because of the dreaded 3rd gear synchro issue.
They fixed 3rd gear.
They also broke 5th/6th gears!
Well, kinda not really -- they just had a brain freeze and forgot to adjust the lockout plate on the shifter assembly. I figured out this one and did a quick writeup if anyone needed their hand held on the adjustment. Would have taken me less than 10 minutes if I wasn't stopping to shoot pictures the whole way.

It's an '03. I think it's one of the earliest cars, too -- I believe it was manufactured sometime in fall 2002. I'll have to check on the exact date.
