I made an earlier post saying my GT was having a weird problem shifting from 2nd to 3rd, sometimes it felt like the gears weren't quite meshed; feels like a couple of teeth in the tranny knock together when pushing into 3rd. Kinda like one gear is still slowly rotating when I shift. No problems shifting up and down in any gear, including from 4th to 3rd.
This weekend, I finally finished some mods to the Cobra clone and took int out for a spin. I hadn't driven it for several months, just too busy. D@mned if the Cobra's T5 didn't do EXACTLY the same thing! The GT's T5 is just over 93K, but the Cobra's T5 (and engine) are just over 52k. Something weird is going on.
I can think of two things in common between the two. First, I'm just not shifting 3rd right, always possible. Second, the Dex/Merc I have in both T5's is doing something weird to 3rd. I had a Valvoline Dex/Merc in before, and I had gear whine in all gears. Now, I'm using a cheap O'Reiley's Dex/Merc. No gear whine, but 3rd seems to be an issue.
What Dex/Merc is everyone using in their T5?
