for some reason my car is grinding on third when your exiting the highway and down shift to third or if your deccelerating and then down shift to third @ about 30mph...i want to hear your opinions before i start taking anything apart....my guess is the gear box but then again it can be the trans....

thanks in advance..

gearbox is a nickname for the trans. mine does it too, just worn out transmission. 3rd is typically the first to go **** house. what might help is matching the revs better, taking your time going into gear, and of course draining the tranny oil and putting in new stuff like 75w-90

don't know much about the trans/gear box....i just got a new clutch put in about a month or two ago and got new tranny oil too...so i guess it's just the tranny....oh well...i'll see how long it takes before i need to swap it...thanks celicast3sgte
