Posted 30/03/06 11:10 AM Posted 30/03/06 11:10 AM I had problems with gear selection but mine was 5th and the 'shifter block' was replaced under warranty...My shift felt VERY vague before hand, but after the warranty it felt alot more positive...If that makes sense... maybe you are experiencing something similar...Jack

I'm not a mechanic, but mine does the same when shifting at hi rpm. I dropped the rev limiter to stop that from happening.Dunno if a T56 is the way to go - it depends on what your after. If you want to go drag racing then an auto would be a no brainer. If you like the control of shifting manually then a manual would be the better option.I like the manual, but my next purchase would be an auto.

Have you had a look at the oil? Get some good oil in there and see if it still happens. Any word on the not staying in gear problem? What has the dealer said?

Would pop out of second all the time and wouldn't shift at high rpm. This was AFTER a complete rebuild of the gearbox and a new clutch. Ended up getting a near new T5 box for $400... Problem solved.A friend of mine with an XR6 turbo ute had his T5 rebuilt by Mal Wood and it came back doing exactly that. He ended up selling the ute a month later.....
