my friend recently bought an '03 EP3 and the person who he bought it from claimed that everything is stock.
so hes running a stock tranny and shifting into 4th from 3rd (granny shifting) is a bit odd (it crunches). it kinda makes that sound where youre half way into gear and you let off the clutch, but only for a split second (it DOES get into gear though). i told him i think its the syncro. from 3rd to 4th i tried double clutching and it was slightly better. it still felt a bit rough. heel toe from 5th to 4th went in perfectly. double clutch from 5th to 4th was also rather smooth. its only when you granny shift from 3rd into 4th it has that issue.
anyone have an ida?
