i took the car to get it checked out today. My car is certified btw so i dont have to pay for this. Turns out that the whole thrid gear is shot all the bearings are gone, they are going to replace it all. Total cost is around 1200, i told them there is no way i would pay for this, because i can buy a full b16 swap for like 2700 or so and it would be around 3500 for it installed. So why would i do this, anyways... any idea how to make it so this wont happen again? And no i dont put force on the shifter when i cruise.
