Ok well my hatch gots Gsr Engine but like two days ago it started to grind on second gear and a little bit on third gear. So i have to shift slowly on second and put force on my hand so it wont do it. This sucks and its annoying. Can someone please help me out with this problem and let me know what could this be and what should i do?

 

As initial troubleshooting, have you checked whether the transmission fluid level may be low or old?

 

To my knowledge everything is fine with the fluid...but im going to double check, if its not that what could it be?

 

The forum transmission gurus will likely have some good suggestions, but my recommendation would be that you start by draining the MT fluid and replacing it with Honda MT fluid. You might see an improvement.

 

Thanks for the advice....

 

what tranny do you have? how many miles on the tranny? could just be your synchros are starting to go... though there should be dual synchros through second (unless its a type r trans), which is why third is usually the first one to go (first gear with a single synchro).

 

Its a GSR Tranny....So are the synchros fixable or what can I do to fix it?

 

yeah but you have to take the tranny off and take it apart to fix them

 

sorry to thread jack, but my car sometimes grinds going into 3rd gear in the high RPMs. Do you think i'm doing something wrong (i've only been driving a stick for 2 months now, but to my knowledge i'm doing everything right) or the synchros possibly going out? I recently replaced the transmission fluid. I used High Mileage Mobil1 Synthetic 10w-30. The engine is a D16Z6.
Also, it will grind going from neutral to reverse (at a complete stop of course) if i try to do it as soon as I push in the clutch. If I wait 1 second after I push in the clutch it doesn't grind.

 

Well you really shouldnt be using 10-30 synthetic oil in your trans it should be honda manual transmission fluid go to honda and use that. As for your problem it could be the clutch not fully disengaging check the hydraulic fluid in the reservoir and bleed it other than that it could be synchros , bad clutch , pressure plate etc.
