ed_ma61 Forums Junkie Location: Lost in the K hole Registered: May 2002	Why am I crunching 2nd to 3rd gear ?? Fri, 13 August 2004 04:21 I seem to have a problem with my w58 'crunching' heavy 2nd to 3rd upshifts, almost exclusively when at high rpm exiting a decent corner, when upshiting into the straight. its like the 3rd syncro isnt working, and the teeth go BBBRRRRRRRRR against each other before catching and clunking into gear. like a missed shift, but i KNOW the clutch is properly disengaged. now before anyone has a crack about some stupid granny shifting, or my ill co-ordinated unko style, i can happily say ITS NOT ME! i originally thought i mustve been a little too eager on the stick and was hitting the shift early, but ive been VERY creful to make sure the clutch is fully disengaged before trying to punch 3rd, and its STILL happens. the interesting thing is solid shifts in a straight line are fine. i never have issues with the box other than when heavy cornering and really pushing the rpm in 2nd before the shift. is it perhaps the box fluid sloshing around during a corner? what can i do to help avoid this? suggestions to different box fluid? fluid levels? over fill it a bit? additives? add a bit of auto trans fluid (heared that once somewhere). its a mkiv supra w58 in top nick, i dont think it should be doing this. any suggestions would be appreciated. cheers ed [Report message to a moderator]
