I drive a '00 Civic Ex Coupe. Its a 5spd and 3rd gear tends to "grind" when shifting or downshifting into it. If I am below a certain RPM or speed it doesn't do it. I'm thinking the transmission will need to be replaced? I am hoping its just something small. Was wondering...how much would a new transmission cost?

took it in last night. i was supposed to get it back today but won't get it back till wednesday. inspected the clutch and it was fine so they have to take it somewhere else to look at the transmission. i really needed it back for tomorrow, i hate driving my mom's car. it sucks ass.
yeah just found out it is the synchros. about how much was it to replace them?Anarchi said:
Im not sure how much they are individually, but if they are going to open the tranny they might as well recondition the whole thing. The whole thing (exluding clutch) cost me $AU1000 which is about $US700.
Something tells me they overcharged a bit

i'm so mad. the mechanic has had my car since sunday night, and they havent even started working on it. meaning i probably wont get it back till next week. its such an inconvience not having a car and your parents are always going places and you can't use theirs. this is too long without it.
i had the exact same thing happen to me...
check out your slave cylinder bc it may be leaking tranny fluid...
mine was and i waited to long to get it checked out (bc my dad is a duesh and said it would be fine) and now mt syncros are all messed up, so take it to a dealer or a repair shop asap

its already at a retarded shop. its been there since sunday and they havent even started working on it. they said theyd start tuesday, then they said theyd start today. they havent started yet. friend said ill be lucky if i have it back by NEXT friday. which sucks, i made plans for this weekend in which i'd need my car. already messed up my plans for today and tomorrow because i didnt have it. saturday mom is going to be gone so i cant drive her car and cant drive my dads because its a company car, plus i hate SUV's and they both have SUV's. im supposed to go do something with this girl saturday but its all going to be messed up without a car. so i'm going to be sitting around bored all weekend because ill have no way of getting where i want when i want.
i do drive it hard though. the grinding gears came from where i messed up shifting one too many times. it was bad.rollinj86 said:
