sisco..try shifting from neutral to 5th at 45mph with the clutch all the way to the floor(of course) and see if it grinds. I bet it will. If that's the case it will only get worse and you better get it to the dealer before you hit 60K or it'll be outside of warranty and your f'd.

Do the trannys go out more in the AT or MT or is it about equal?

2003 Performance with 24k miles. I don't even drive it hard. My 3rd gear has always been suspect and it's been giving me problems since 17k miles. I've just been too lazy to send it into the dealership and deal with the fight with the service manager. Probably can't put it off too much longer.
