Thanks for the info red rocket I will tell these clowns at the dealership about the selector pins seeing they obviously don't have a clue. hopefully ill be back in the 'work hack' soon. going from a ba xr6t to an auto focus loan car nearly brings a tear to your eyes.

Hey there ,I have had the same problem with my t5 mainly on the down shift into second. Took it back to the dealer (I had the car for about four weeks)they took three weeks to fix it, replaced second gear, shaft, bearings etc so they recon, cost them 4 grand so they recon. Got it back yesterday and it is the same if not worse. It happens doing about 30-40 kays at about 1000rpm (city driving), slow shifting, it pops out and grinds, sounds awful and makes you look like a real dik. A mate who is a mechanic recons it could be the detense springs and balls that hold the gear shift in place or something like that. Anyway its going back to the dealer and ill be left driving a focus for the next three weeks, not happy.

Just want to say hey guys I'm new to the site and new to the xr6t as well I have just picked up an 04 ba turbo ute and year these things are a lot of fun to drive. it looks the goods too. Just wondering has any one had any dramas with dropping down from third to second with the five speed it seems to jump out of second when the clutch is released, cheers
