[QUOTE="DEADLY FORCE, post: 10945073, member: 34454"] I think the reason the synchros on some or going bad is because some are not shifting with clutch down all the way and are somewhere near the middle give or take and are grinding gears cause they are inadvertantly shifting with clutch partially out and not disengaged fully. Don't downshift to a crazy low gear either, the brakes are good on these cars, use them. You'll burn up the synchros otherwise. Performing the fluid swap is a dramatic difference for when your tranny is cold for shift quality. I recommend if you test drive, turn the radio and ac off and get on it a little and see if you can hear any whinning coming from the tranny, if it does, don't buy it. [/QUOTE]
