2nd gear grind!

[BrettR]

I hope this is just me not being used to it but I've had 2nd gear grind 3 times so far in my 13 Shelby. Each time i was on it to about 5,000-5,500 rpm and shifted to 2nd and it would grind but went in to 2nd easy and a few time I've done the same with no grind. For some reason i can not seem to figure out what Im doing wrong. I know how to shift this is my 4th mustang all were standards and I've raced everyone of them. So what do you guys think? Could it just be me and i need a little more seat time or should i bring her in to get checked
Thanks for your time
Brett

When the grid happened was the fluids/tranny up to temperature. If it's not it could grid.

If this is the case with the 2013's, I will cancel my order. I will not go through that crap with the dealerahips again making me look like I was an idiot.

Couldn't agree more, the sole reason i ditched my 2011... having to count to 2 out loud to avoid shifting grind/not engaging was insane.

Inside line was having 2 gear grind issues too. They even stated that in the article........Read the second paragraph in the "what the instruments say" section.

I don't want anyone to doubt this car its amazing in every way. The grinding could just be me and not the car. I hope its me!

Subbed for later. I hope there is no grind or I'll be getting cold feet.

Starting to feel better about buying the Boss everyday. If this really is an issue again than it looks like no GT500 for me. The one thing I enjoy about my Boss is that I can bang all the gears without a problem. That second gear grind going all out in my 2010 and 2011 GT500 was a bummer. I want to know how the heck SVT shifts the car? Maybe they need to put out a best practices YouTube video for the GT500.

I've gotten the grind too, but my money is on the shifter being the issue. My barton is on the back seat and i'm putting it in today. I'll post results later

Ive heard the Barton cleans it up nicely and the stock shifter is junk in comparison. Sounds like a shifter will help the issue and it is not internal in the trans.

Let me know how the shifted works. I will get one if it makes it stop

Ditto. This is. A noob question, but do the Boss mustangs have this transmission and this shift issue?

No...they have the same tranny as the GT

They have the MT-82 like the GT's.............I dont know about the 2013's but the 2011-2012's had some major issues with the MT-82 trans.
