first off i bought my car used from a nissan dealer with 13400 miles on it i now have 16600 miles on it and just recently started getting the 3rd gear grind after i shift into 3rd after 3500rpm. does nissan cover the transmission untill a certain amount of miles w/o purchasing a extended warranty? how would i go about having this problem fixed without having to come up with money out of my pocket?

thanks
paul

 

THE Z HAS 60000 MILES WARRANTY . NISSAN DEALER WILL GIVE U A NEW TRANNY. I BOUGHT MY CAR USE AND NISSAN DEALER CHANGE MY TRANNY . SAME PROBLEM. JUST BRING IT TO A DEALER .

 

MAKE SURE YOUR CAR IS BACK TO FACTOR SPEC. NO TEST PIPE OR HEADER

 

Mine is having the problem now too at 24000+ miles. I brought it to the dealer and went with my mom to scare them cause her accent and attitude get people moving and they had a tech drive the car with me.

He gets in and starts driving like a woman so I tell him to be realistic and shift faster. Once he starts shifting quickly the grinding ensues. As of now I need to go back to the dealer tomorrow because they said they're waiting for word from Nissan but that they'll probably change the 'unit' and by that Im assuming they mean the transmission.

 

How to fix grind...pull harder on the stick...no j/k I have done the same thing a couple of times this week when I have not been paying attention...I cringe everytime

 

i thought the nissan only had a 3 yr 36k mile warranty on drivetrain?

 

Pulling is for 2, 4, 6 or reverse

Pushing is for 1, 3 and 5
