My MT-82 has developed "grinding gears" over the last month only when downshifting from 2nd to 1st while the car is rolling. I'm not engaging the clutch, just moving it into gear when slow-rolling up to a light. If I come to a complete stop before going into 1st, then no problem. I assume bad synchros. For now, I'm just not downshifting (the ol' "it hurts when I do this...so don't do that").
Questions:
1. Do you think I'm right in my assessment. If so, what am I looking at to repair $$-wise?
2. Everyone seems to like the Tremec. If they need to work on the MT-82, should I take the opportunity to upgrade? Was hoping to not spend the $ if it could be avoided.
Thanks!
