Hey guys,
well i went out and bought another dsm. Im proud to say its my 5th one over the years and probably the cleanest and best. Im not new to trans issues of these cars or poorly bled slave symptoms etc. I have searched a bit, but i find the issue im having seems pretty unique and i cannot quite put my finger on a solution or cause.
- The car up-shifts flawlessly into every gear, no grinds, doesnt pop out of gear. You can downshift from 5-4, 4-3 perferctly with out any grinding or issues, but when i try and downshift from 4-2 or 3-2 i cannot get it to go into gear, basically summing up my issue is that i cannot downshift to 2nd gear while the vehichle is rolling at any mph. when i try to put it in 2nd gear, it doesnt grind, pop out or do anything for that matter, it just will not go in or doesnt attempt to. Ive tried rev matching and using a little force to get it to go in, but it is almost as if its was "locked out". Its odd, i can come to a stop and it slides into 2nd gear like butter, as well as shifting second gear on upshifts it is also smooth and grind-less. What could be causing this?
