second gear problem in 2002 ex 5-speed?

Diznavis · 01-09-2002

this morning on my way to work, i put my car into second gear and it popped out when i let the clutch out. i put it back in and it went, but then popped out of third gear too. i dont think it was me, but since its only happened once so far (only had the car for 2 days though) it could have been me.

That sux man bring it to the dealer right away. May be your synchronizer or something

My car did that i read in one of these forums that there was a service buletin on that
the dealer changed a bushing but now 1st 3rd and 5th gears feel real funny u can put the shifter all the way up to where those gears would be with out pushing in the clutch!!!!!!!!!!so now they are ordering a sh#$ load of parts like a new set of gears and shifting forks and some other stuff
BUT IT DONT POP OUT OF GEAR ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!LOL

hey if you figure out what it is please let me know i have a 01 dx and have had that problem from the time i got my car the dealership said it is probably the shift forks are bent he said that forceing the car into gear would be the cause for that

he said it is because i race my car i think thats bull s**t but thats just my opinion they want to take my car for 3 days to fix it i should have taken it back in as soon as i noticed the problem but thats my bad anyhow if you figure it out let me know please
