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..

sounds like the 3rd gear synchronizer may be on its way out, revmatching will help some, however the only way to fix the problem is to get the trans rebuilt with new synchronizers.
