This has happened about 3 times since I've owned the car. The last time it happened I was approaching a left turn and was in third gear. I downshifted to 2nd with SRM and the clutch fully depressed but when putting it into second gear I heard a grinding. With my foot still fully depressing the clutch and my speed now in range of 1st gear I just put it in neutral and then first. I was able to get into second gear after and didn't have any problems. Is my clutch on its way out? I bought my car at 12k miles and it is now at 20k. I don't shift aggressively and also have the rjm clutch pedal mod.
