Ok so my 07 si has just been giving me issues.. First it was the TERRIBLE feed back in the radio.. then the headliner just wouldn't stay attached.. Well new problems.. I promise this is just my luck! Soo here's the problems now.. the little one first.. some guy pulled in front of me and I held in the horn.. it cuts out.. no one believe me until my fiance was driving the car and he used the horn and it cut out again.. Well I was driving about a month ago and it popped out of 3rd when I shifted the car.. I was like well maybe I didn't get it in all the way.. my dad drove the car and it did it to him.. my fiance drove it and it did it to him.. soo I decided to take it in for both those issues.. well I get a phone call about 2:30ish saying it's my tranny.. GREAT! the car only has 8000 miles on it and I dont drive it hard @ all.. I think I hit v-tech maybe 5 times and I've had it for 8 months. They said it's because I drive with my hand on the shifter.. well sorry to break there little hearts but I don't drive like that cause I know it causes problems.. I don't even do that when I drive an automatic.. Since I'm not 18 they can't give us one of there cars.. and they are being cheap asses and won't give me a rental.. so now I have to go and fight with them tomorrow about paying another car rental place so I can get a car... Did I mention they will have my car for a week?????? I have school that is about 45 mins away and I also work.. Is anyone else having issues??? Or is it only me??

Sometimes when I go to shift into 3rd it misses, but since I only drive my as a pleasure car and not a daily driver, I figured it was just difference of vehicles, but I'm starting to think otherwise, but isn't yours under warrenty? If mine goes out it should just be replaced since I have 7 year/100k mile bumper to bumper and the car is less than 90 days old anyway and could be replaced by a dealership under the Ohio Lemon Law for about 30 more days.

ya they are covering it.. they weren't going to cause my shift forks were bent and they are trying to blame me for driving the car to hard.. isn't the case since I never get on it! My actually missed 2nd last night so the problem just keeps gettin worse!!

Ya mine sometimes doesn't go into third if i don't push the clutch to the floor. Really annoying. Also if i tap the clutch sometimes, it will pop out of third. Changing the fluid at 5,000 miles?

Its almost like I have to push it into third harder then all of the other gears...almost like the syncros aren't lining up. i assume thats what it would be.

Yeah... I have the same problem...
I have to push really hard to get into third sometimes... It all depends if my car is mad at me or not...

well it's in the shop so we'll see what they say.. the mechanical called off today so it's just sitting there but HOPEFULLY they'll get it fixed by friday cause I can't keep driving around this truck... it's too big to take anywhere. lol
