I have an 02 GT with about 28,000 miles on it. Just recently I started having problems shifting. First I started noticing problems going into reverse after starting the car. I found that if I started the car and put it into first, THEN put it into reverse it didn't grind. Then I started having problems going into second...it seemed like it wasn't going in smoothly. Now first is showing signs?? I've driven a stick for 25 years so it's NOT that I don't know how to shift. I can shift like a mutha when get'n on it. Can it be the clutch with only 28K on it? Gears need to be "adjusted"?? Seems to soon to be having problems. Anybody experience this? I need to know what I'm in for.
It's all part of the T-3650 TSB. I've noticed mine has been acting up when I'm going home after work at night since it's started getting colder. The 1-2 2-3 grind goes away when the cars warms up, but it's right back the next night. I thought mine was o.k., but that was when it was still warm out. Oh, well warranty will cover it.

Yeah I am having the Reverse problem as well. And my car will NOT go into 3rd sometimes when i shift it. I have to disengage and re-engage the clutch and THEN it goes. My Reverse and 3rd don't -grind-...but they just wont go sometimes. I dont know what the deal is with this, but i have 30,000 miles on it and will be taking it for warranty check up REAL soon...
I just picked mine up in April and I've only got a little over 7,500 on it. I didn't notice it until just recently when the weather started to get below 50 at night when I leave work. My car is parked in my heated insulated garage so I never noticed before just a few days ago. Oh, well. Perfect time to install a King Cobra clutch while they've got the tranny out. I know a write guy at a Ford dealer so it shouldn't be a problem having them put the new clutch in.
