downshifting into 3rd gear grinding - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #88871 6 posts Started by njccmd2002
Hey, i really not interested on rebuilding the tranny, but lately this has been a major issue, unfortunately i was dumb to sell my original tranny for 100 bucks,

but would the fix be easy, or not.

Im leaning towards a lower miles tranny, but im guessing it might be syncros or something. has anyone done it, i have been looking for a specific post there was, but cant remember username

Do you have Syncromesh is your trans? It seems to be a great cure for our 3rd gear grinding.

Did you just change the tranny fluid? Mine did that after changing the fluid. If I downshift too fast, it would grind but after babying it for a few k miles it went away.

no i dont have syncromesh, that was my next tought, but i have to change clutch and hate to pull the tranny down for a second time. but i guess that will do for a while. I Just hate that people look at me like i cant drive stick.

It's just part of the Celica, for whatever reason. You'd be no better off replacing with a used transmission since it'll do the same eventually. Mine does it slightly and every now and then. I've just stopped downshifting into third, unless I'm going to pass someone on the highway.
