Reason I ask is because I brought the car in for a 4th gear grind...I assumed it was a syncro, but when I called to ask what was going on with the car they told me it looked like a bad solenoid. Before I laughed at the guy I figured I would ask here. Is he right or no? 1999 Silver Frost SVT #609 of 2760 Born on 12/3/98 KKM Intake Removed Resonator 35% Window Tint all around Tinted Tail Lights ElKy Mesh Grilles HID Dyno'ed at 175.3HP/155.5TQ "How much must I live through just to get away..."
