Hi all, I recently purchased a 2003 V6 Mustang w/ standard 5-spd manual tranny. After a couple of hundred miles I noticed it would sometimes grind when changing into 5th at higher speeds and 3rd was getting notchy. The dealership changed the 3rd and 5th synchro's and problem solved.
BUT..... now I noticed that when changing from neutral to reverse it will grind unless I change into another gear first. The car has just under 23K on it.
Is reverse gear not synchronized in this transmission ? I was surprised as I have driven dozens of other manual cars and never had this problem. Thanks.
