ditto. all h series trannies seem to have this issue. there is a bulletin on it actually, requires new synchros and maybe a shift fork or something i cant remember what it said.

Originally posted by Akimoto When you guys say 'double' clutch what do you guys do exactly? I didn't think double clutching upshifting did anything?
press clutch in, take car out of gear, let go of clutch, push clutch back in, shift into a gear, let clutch out.

luckily mine was under warranty when this started happening. Week after I sent it to the shop, it never grinded again. I got the bill and it was 1300 bux , thank goodness for warranties
