silver tc

ok i was at work and my boss wanted me to do a mcdonalds run. so i was coming back, and this tc was beside me. every time he shifted i knew it cause i heard the gears grinding. ok heres the thing. should i have rolled my window down and yelled at him? or just drive away like i did? i mean it hurt to listen to this thing. and his friend was in the car too. im just not sure whether to cut slack next time or ream his ***. i heard grining like 3 times from start to when i couldn't take it anymore.

Maybe the passenger was the owner and he was letting an idiotic friend drive his car?

well my tranny makes alot of noise, it seems as if every shift is grinding even when not. Its only the tranny shifting gears. I hear it from alot of other cars. Maybe you thought u heard grinding but it wasnt. Because you will know when someone grinds the gears.
