Picked the car up today, holy SH!T does it feel so much better. No more popping out of 2nd, solid/quiet shift into 2nd and NO more noise in 4th. Now that I know the Trans is solid internally I will not beat on it, I will install the MGW2 to prevent the same thing happening again. Cannot believe people would suggest throwing a shifter at a Trans with bad parts internally, especially when fixed for free!
I'm amazed at the difference and after watching the MGW2 10 minute video showing shifter differences/improvements I feel very solid the actual fix for these things is having a solid Trans internally, then installing the MGW2 shifter.
Hope more can go this route and enjoy their cars!
Glad to hear. But beating on the trans after break in should not break it. Unless grinding gears.
