My first transmission grinded in second straight off the showroom floor. Ive pulled coroded syncros from the fa20 transmissions in two separate cars on 3 separate transmissions both turbo and non turbo. Both 5th gear and 2nd gear. My transmission that sheared 4th was brand new and had excessive wear on the 2nd gear syncro but didn't grind yet. There is a syncro problem from the factory. My used transmission had excessive wear on the reverse gear but is holding up. Though 3rd crunched at -3 this morning. My car has no clutch drag and stock shifter. My current transmission has a cooler on it. Heat may be hurting these transmissions but it's too cold here to tell. Element tuning has the same findings as me last we talked.
