My friend who also has an SVT has had the same problem, it seems that if you double clutch to third, the problem is less common though... Is this a common problem with SVT's, has anybody else heard of or had this problem??? 98 CSVT #135 of 6535 (black/Blue) --Custom Grille, Calipers(red), Taillights On the Way---Brembo Rotors and Spec Stage 1

Search the Transaxle forum for the words "third" and "synchro" and you'll learn about the causes and some workarounds or solutions that you can try. Beer is my Gatorade. Hooray Beer.
