Well last saturday I took the Stang out for a spin. Didnt get on it, just driving it around. I was going to downshift and I thought I missed 3rd, so tried again. Wouldnt hit 3rd gear. I was like wtf. So Then all of a sudden 4th gear ***** the bed too.
So I get home, pull the shifter. I had never installed the shifter that was in it, who ever had it before me put it in. And I knew it was wrong but never thought anything of it. It wasnt put in all the way and it had like a half inch of play in it. So it would move up and down like a half inch.
So Im assuming what had happen was that it wasnt in gear all the way so it was just grinding synchros and gears. So I took it to the dealership and there fixing it.
I give them a call the next day they tell me 3rd and 4th gear is blown. So I said ok, is it getting rebuilt? He said nope, ordering a brand new tranny for it
Thank god it was warranteed, all I had to pay was a $50 deductable or whatever
