Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING IN MY CAR ONE DAY I INTENDED TO SHIFT INTO 3RD GEAR, BUT IT ONLY MADE A GRINDING NOISE. I CAN ONLY ASSUME SINCE THE NOISE PERSISTS EVEN WITH REV MATCHING THAT ITS A SYNCRO/CONE PROBLEM. I TRY TO SHIFT DURING THE PROPER RPM AREA, AND SOMETIMES IT WILL SHIFT WITHOUT A PROBLEM OTHER TIMES IT GRINDS. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY. IT HAD APPROXIMATELY 45,000 MILES ON IT THEN, NOW AROUND 70,000, STILL HAS THE ISSUE. *TR
