Use the search feature and hope no one finds this thread... in fact I'd PM a mod to delete it before anyone finds it.

I just did. Re-read my quote. Do I have to spoon feed it to you?

LOTS of transmissions were replaced in '03 Z's, it was fairly common to have the transmission grind when going into 3rd gear. You need to replace the transmission.

It’s cool. There are several common 350Z problems. Let’s hope you don’t experience all of them.

what are your tranny problems?.... just don't tell me it grinds or locks you out of 2nd when your shifting too fast (cause thats normal on a Z) well for the most part anyways

Excellent news. For future reference, I put "Transmission problems" as the parameters in "advanced search" up there ^, and clicked "titles only". i got this wealth of threads (26 pages in fact):

If you experience any more problems if you use "titles only" in advanced search it will narrow your results significantly.
