5th gear grinding got worst

Took my FR-S into the dealership a couple months ago because my 5th gear would grind, and they replaced this.



And a few days later after I got the car back the grinding returned, and a month later and the grinding is now worse than before.

So take it back. What they changed would not affect grind.

Well, without looking up those parts, I would agree with @Tcoat ....... it looks like they just patched around the problem.

@Ultramaroon , what do you think .. ??

I agree with you guys. Looks like they removed the extension housing, poked around a bit, and replaced a couple parts that didn't look brand new.

Nothing to do with gear grind.

just get some motul transmission fluid and tell them to put that in.


How old and what year/how many mile you have on your frs? if it's pretty old and just started doing that then it's a different story.

What’s funny is that the service rep told me the synchros was replaced until the end, but then I got the papers and noticed that they didn’t replaced it but since the grinding was gone I didn’t even mention it.

Make sure they used the correct oil. I went to a Scion/Toyota dealership for warranty transmission work and they refilled the transmission with Subaru GL5 transaxle lube. Wrong, wrong, wrong.
