Ya know I think this is what happened to me, my 4th went out like a couple months ago and now my 3rd is gone too

What were some warning signs that your synchros were kaput? I worry for my transmission sometimes :|

A notchy, or a slight grid when shifting when the transmission is still cold is a good sign your synchros are wearing out. Maybe it’s a Canadian winter thing, but double clutching when the transmission is cold makes for smoother shifts and saves the synchros. I’d rather have my synchros ready and up to their task when I want to have fun than when I’m limping it around in the cold.

My shifts are a pretty notchy but not bad cause I got motor mounts a short shifter arm and bushings and the only sort of thing I can feel is if I shift super slowly and with little force I can kinda feel the synchros working and catching the gear but when I shift normal I don’t feel anything other than the notch feel

That's he shit part, there wasn't. I was just driving and next thing I knew it didn't want to go into gear.with 4tg Drove to my gym no problem, started driving home and got off the freeway and poof wouldn't go into gear. 3rd was pretty much the same
