2nd gear grind =/

And the car was not cold, I had driven over 20 miles when I did this. The only thing I can think of is I had the S mode on at the time, which I don't think should cause this but I have not tried the latter. I will try this again with S mode off and see what happens. I also previously owned a 2005 350Z and this was often discussed in forums. Luckily my 350 was ok. I was under the impression that the 370 had a different tranny. I know some of you might say to give it a few more miles which is sound advice, but it shouldn't do this. Either way I will wait until 2k and if it still grinds I'm taking it to the dealer.
