driving home from school today i noticed that it is really hard to get the car in 2nd, sometimes impossible. but when i go slow in first and let it rev to about 1500 it shifts ok into 2nd. i dont recall the last time the tranny fluid was replaced, i have had the car for 1.5 years. could the tranny fluid be the problem? thanks guys

 

is this an auto car?

 

forgot to state that. 6 speed manual t56

 

id say its the syncros going out in 2nd man isnt nothing you can do besides replace them.Because ik the pins came out of 5th on mine it goes in(aka not syncros)but doesnt engage into 5th.So yea thank you can replace the syncros in 2nd?if so go ahead and do it.

 

If I were you, I"d change the fluid in the transmission. I know my accord was doing that, but I changed it and it stopped. Otherwise, the syncronizers in the transmssion are going out, and your best bet would be to find a used one, or rebuild it.

 

yeah my dad said it was probably the syncro's. ill look into it. thanks guys
