Good day all, my 2005 GT has 165K relatively trouble-free miles on it until this weekend. The transmission has started to grind a bit when shifting into 3rd gear. It stays in gear fine, and all of the other gears shift OK. I'm thinking I have a synchro that is starting to die so I'm either looking at a rebuild or a replacement transmission.
Has anyone ever rebuilt one of these?
I'm thinking the 6-speed Matrix and Corolla transmissions are the same as this one, am I right?
I'm going to change out the gear oil with some fresh GL-4 tomorrow and hope I can limp around for a bit until I decide what to do.
I would imagine I could find the answers if I SEARCH but this !#*$%! government computer won't load the search page.
Cheers--Steve
