What's involved witht he First Gear syncro fix?
The dealer has finally agreed to fix my first gear issue and says they have to order a syncro kit in inorder to repair it. Does anyone know what is technicalls involved int he repair and what parts are replaced/adjusted?
Is there any way I can be sure the parts were actually installed? Are there any tell tale signs of the work being completed? |

If you don't trust the dealer you should go to another one.

Bring along a/some friends that are familiar in the field and get 2nd and so forth, assured opinions.
All the best. |

It is a huge job. The tranny must be dropped and then completely dissassembled and then put back together correctly. They had mine for five days. I notice no difference although mine never jumped out of gear. Just real hard to get it into first sometimes. I thought the syncros would fix that. I was wrong. Good luck.

As much as I would like to avoid any major work on my car (like dropping the tranny) I am glad it is getting fixed. It probably pops out of gear an average of 3 times per day, and that is just commuting to and from work. I will be nice to ba able to drive the car without having to cringe when using first gear all the time...
