[Dephective]

I've had my car visit the dealer on 7 occasions, now on my 4th dealer, for numerous clutch/transmission issues. Crunchy 2nd and 3rd gears going up or down, loud and rough clutch engagement and plate sticking, clutch sounding like rod knock when cold, clutch fork squeaking, etc. Previous dealership visits always came back with the normal excuse that it's "normal operation" and they compared it to one they had on their lot. The visit before this current one had corporate involved and sent out a factory tech, who said "normal", although I was unable to demonstrate my issues when I went to pick the car up (just my luck).

Fast forward to now, I decided to try a dealership that is known for being more helpful, although is about a 35minute drive without traffic one way. I dropped the car off last night, told them to leave it cold overnight. Drove back this morning, and was able to get all of my issues to present with the shop foreman (fucking finally!). Was told that he is just waiting on corporate to give him the go ahead on what they find would be called for replacement. Hopefully I find out tomorrow what all they are replacing.

I went in with all current mods: shifter bushing, complete rear transmission mount, nameless op/fp, coilovers, rear control arms. Trans fluid was replaced with factory fill at 13k miles, replaced with Motul at 13,500. Neither of which fixed my crunchiness and hesitation and sometimes outright denial to enter gears.

Issues presented themselves at 1500 miles, currently at 14,2xx miles. I will post when I find out anything. I've been putting off my plans for the car because of this very issue not being solved. It has gotten to the point where I will most likely sell the car if I can't get this issue resolved.
