I have a MY2017 BRZ and now I have driven it about 8000KM.
I found a problem since 1000km that sometimes it difficult to upshift from 2nd to 3rd gear when the engine coolant and engine oil temp don't reach the normal temperature, especially after cold start. The feeling is like something stuck in the 3rd gear and I feel there is a gear crash at the moment the trans lever was pushed into 3rd gear.
Does anyone also have the same issue? Can it be better if I replace the OEM trans oil with a better one? I think it must be the synchron problem because this issue won't happen if I use double clutch. And after the coolant and engine oil reach normal working temperature, the issue also won't happen and the upshift process will be smooth.
