ahh pretty bad, try not to do it... if it happens once in a while, then that is ok, everyone does it from time to time, Just do'nt do it all the time. cause you will ruin your tranny

Grinding your gears is bad. When you hear that noise, just think of you taking your gearset and putting it to a workbench based grinder and ripping the teeth off.
