Manual Transmission Kinda Glitchy?
I have been driving my FJ for about two months and 4000 miles now. I have the 6spd Manual Transmission. It seems to me that when I upshift into 2nd and mainly 3rd gear it seems that I feel a bit of gear mis-meshing. It is almost like I am feeling the syncro rings sorta crashing a little or the clutch is still getting a hint of traction. It is nothing very bad but it does make me a little irritated. It seems to do it more noticeably when it is cold. Once the engine warms up it is not as noticeable. Also, downshifting into 1st even at very slow speed takes a bit of a shove on the shift lever sometimes.
Actually it acts a lot like the transmission I had in another vehicle. If you put the lube in that the car maker call for it would bind up the syncros. If you put a lighter lube in it all was great.
