My transmission was grinding in 5th gear at normal motorway speeds. Anyway by the time I talked to Toyota about it and they wanted the car in I had a track day lined up so I said I would come after the weekend.
Funny thing is, after taking it to the track the problem fixed itself.
Still using factory fill, but yeah, the transmission is now wonderful. Not saying this would work for you, but in my case giving it a proper thrash seems to have resolved the issue for me.
Good luck getting it sorted. |
I've been wanting to reply to this and forgot about it, you still need to drain your gear oil and check it. Even if it smoothed out there could be some serious problems and dirty oil/debris.

All of them mention that there is a specific association to report to first that handles disputes with dealerships, lemon laws, and lawsuits. I'll take a look at see what the name was. might check in your manual to see if it says the same thing...

Usually that depends on the state since every state has different lemon laws. I've checked out WAs, and they have arbitration clauses that are handled by the state attorneys. Not to mention, usually in the military we have JAG offices/SJA reps that will cover our asses in large dollar screw-over issues. Although if I'm not mistaken they usually handle shitty landlords and people breaking lease agreements, there may be no coverage for lemon laws.
