I myself am getting a grind going into 3rd and 5th. I will be going to the dealer sooner or later. Very upsetting that SO many people are having this problem on here

![]() haha, yes, the new mustang GT has had a lot of transmission problems, as has the Camaro, Challenger, on and on. He's right, almost all cars using the TR6060 have had issues (Except GM fixed the 'vette with CF lined synchro's YAY! but it still suffers hydraulic issues if you don't change the fluid often). Long story short, manual transmissions right now are not the best it seems, but they are the only way to go imo |

Baker is a good dealership. They do a lot of performance work so they are probably one of the least likely dealerships to give you the run around.

Ugh, I really need to get my car into the dealership. It just doesnt happen all the time and I fear the run around due to all my mods. Since I have it off the road for the winter I should just re-insure it and drop it off at the dealer and be like "you fools figure it out".

whats the benefit or purpose of shifting from 3th straight to 5th or 2nd straight to 5th gear. I can see skipping gears on a down shift but cannot understand skipping on up shifts.

It cannot be less wear on the synchronizer; your shifting out of sequence and the 370z transmission has closed gear ratios, so you're causing more stress on the synchronizers. I am a mechanic and I have seen many people damage transmissions with mis-shifts and shifting out of sequence.
