thats sux man rip them a new ass my skittle is an 04 with 40,000 and it just started poppin out of gear when i down shift into 3rd and it grinds going into third if i take it above 5,000 rpm in 2nd. I took it to the dealer and they said that there is nothing wrong with my tranny. so i am gonna wait until the damn thing locks up and tell them to come get it. i have the 7yr-70,000 manufacture powertrain warr. and i also bought a 5 yr-100,000 mi bumper to bumper with a $100 deductable.
Take it to another dealership if their is another one around you. Some deals are just more of a pain then others. Tell them this is not your first rodeo and you know the forks need to be replaced so fix it. I just cant beleive dealers tell people that there is nothing wrong with a trans grinding and poping out of gear?? I have had 32 cars and 17 where manual's and none of them just popped out of gear.
thats right on the money what my car was doin.... and good luck with the stealer ships make him your bitch, im goin over my warranty papers this weekend with my attorney and gonna take them to the down if i can....
