Hey guys recently over the last few days ive noticed the first or second time i go to drive my car like after its been sitting for awhile when i go to put it in to 3rd gear i get a small grind... only does it when the car is cold and only the first time i put it in gear... i did notice a small trans leak when i had it up on the lift last... You think it might of just been low on fluid...??? i filled it up when i did the clutch... i guess ill get it up on the lift tomorrow and give it a check... i hope its not syncros...
thanks,
Adam

Go easy with it because it is getting time for new sycros. They will usually act up worse when the tranny and fluid aren't warmed up completely.
