Ok, one last comment for giggles; my car was bone stock and went through three transmissions. I've never even done a damn doughnut in it due to dealerships being quick to deem the driver abusing the car. Never been raced, nothing at all; pure regular driving, 50 miles each way to work daily.
Attention MT-82 victoms!!!
- Thread starter POSFTW

So what about the owner who has a tune, driveshaft, aftermarket shifter, etc. that can be blamed for causing the transmission to fail? You going to suggest to them to continue making their transmission worse to try and get it covered under warranty? That is the point I am trying to make with your posts. Terrible advice.
What about the folks like myself who have fixed the issue at the root of the problem, beat the piss out of their cars at the strip and have nothing but great experiences with this transmission?
Let's face the facts, 90% of Mustang owners are going to mod their car in one way or another. Suspension, tune, exhaust, intake, etc... Instead of bitching and whining that this sucks or that sucks and for those of us who want to take these cars to the limit, be proactive about it and do the following mods:
1. Replace the trans fluid
2. Replace the stock clutch
3. Install an aftermarket shifter
I am sure folks like yourself would rather bitch and complain that they paid $xxx for their car and it should work like xxx but on the other hand spend $$$ on mods such as springs, lca's, and a UCA. I have a better suggestion since you can't seem to get Ford to fix your problem, put that money into the items I mentioned and enjoy your car. If not, go create your own board dedicated to MT-82's and any other manual trans car made that owners have had issues with (jmatero has had issues with every manual trans car he has ever owned) and have at it. You guys could be mods/admins together, organize meets and shit, and create stickers/shirts for all members to share.
BTW - last time I changed my trans fluid there were no metal shavings in it.
Why? Are you just looking to stir the pot more? No one gives a shit.
You are in the Lemon Law process so move on.
my transmission went out within the first 200 miles. I didnt complain though, nor do i have the patience for ****ing warranty shit. My dumbass ended up swapping a tr6060 into it, probably not the brightest idea but whatever.
Was it clutch related?
The best is gonna be when none of these cars are lemon lawed. Because the truth will come out.
The only issue I have with my Transmission ( 1,100 ) miles so far.. Is there is a distinct whine like a supercharger, Its not all the time, and on wide open shift over 6K rpm I hit a brick wall shifting into 4th, I bought a MGW recently and havent installled it yet, due to dead of winter.
Otherwise shifting is awesome and smooth . !

I have a 2012 gt and i get the super charged whine as well but no where near as loud as some people mentioned. i had it for about a month and just broke the 2k mile barrier i will take mine in as soon as im back in texas to my dealer and see if they have some input on the matter as well. As a side note maybe the cabin noise is different in earlier models so it might be just as loud.
