So, I know that I'm not the only one out there that has experienced grinding while shifting. I've been driving a manual tranny for 31 years. So, I have an idea of what I'm doing. But, every once in a while, it grinds going into 2nd. Like a missed gear. Anyone else out there experiencing the same thing and what did you do about it? I took it back to the dealer and left it there for a day. Of course, they told me that they couldn't reproduce the grind.

 

dont press the clutch pedal all the way to the ground and see if its any better...

 

my 03 don't grind(original tranny)....but sometimes a little notchy in 2nd if you don't rev it up past at least 2500 from 1st(preferrably above 3500)......all gears engage like a hot knife through butter. i enjoy the positive feel or feedback from the nissan 6m/t.

 

yes, Nissan replaced mine no questions asked. TSB on the synchros
