Brought my car to the dealership and took a ride with an experienced mechanic. He liked the car a lot. What he told me was that transmissions in a RWD car had less room and therefore used smaller synchronizers than FWD cars. Since I have driven FWD cars for the last 17 years and Hondas at that, I have been comparing two different transmission styles. I don't know enough about transmissions to verify what he said, but in any case, I now have the concern registered with the dealership. If the crunchiness issue doesn't get worse, that's fine. It's something I can live with.
