Weird Transmission Activity Mt-82, 2012 5.0

[Jack C]

Hi All,

I purchased 2012 mustang gt M/T not too long ago and seems fine for awhile.

A couple of week ago I drove around 1.5hr and the shifter feel kinda weird and eventually quite hard to pull out and push in. Still, driveable however it feels like sort of jammed or something. Reverse was worse. But then when the car is cool it is fine again.

So, bright the car in to the dealership service and they said it meant to be.

Anyone has any idea ? or some suggestions?

Thanks,

Jack

Search MT-82 problems. It's really the weak link in an amazing car.

A lot of people seem to be complaining about the same issue. I'm going to be replacing the shifter with a unit from MGW and see if that helps any.

Maybe just go for a Steeda or other good brand shifter bracket and a solid shift knob. Makes a hug diff
