Alright so I'm driving home from work. I shift it into 3rd and I hear it grind into gear, but it dives perfectly normal in 3rd. Now if I downshift into 3rd then there will be no grinding. Also if I shift really slowly into 3rd then no grinding is heard. The grinding is only heard under quick acceleration and medium to quick shifting. Any idea what could be wrong

Preferably Mobil1 Synthetic. -Hope I helped, Ryan. |
