5 Speed problem anyone have this happen?
Last week when I was driving and desided to take off from a light cause this stupid honda was reving i reved first to 6 cause that is were the HP peeks and shifted to 2nd it grinded and when I showed a couple friends and let them drive it that drive 5speeds they said the 2nd gear sacrows how ever you spell it LOL!!! I was guessing the same thing and i only have 26,000 miles on it. I took it to the dealership and they took it for like 5 test drives 5 diff poeple to figure the prob and i told them what it was and they said the same thing i told them. They are putting a new trans in it now but anyone else have that problem just wondering???!!!!

I'm still trying to read the first post. Please use some punctuation AND PLEASE, Your xB isnt' a race car.
I'm having problems with my transmission clunking. shifting to 2nd gear, sometimes I'll hear a clunk but what's disturbing me is that I hear a knocking sound when the car is idling. It only happens when I'm sitting still with my foot OFF the clutch pedal and the A/C compressor is running. If you turn off the A/C, the sound goes away. If you push the clutch pedal to the floor, the sound goes away.

I'm having similar issues, but it happens while up-shifting into 3rd/4th gear. Happens more often when I down-shift to 3rd. This is my second transmission in the car. I'm going to be paying the dealership another visit

No grinding problems at all unless I don't press the clutch far enough, or let it out too soon, and those are my fault, not Toyota's!

A lot of times when I get on it from a light it wont let me into 2nd. Its very embarassing... IDk what it is but its like if I go all the way to redline it wants to stay in 1st. Maybe its something with the syncros. Before I go I try to run the shifter through the gears so as to prevent any "stuck"ness lol.

Did some of you guys ever think that these problems are happening because you're redlining a scion? These arent made to take to redline. Now if you want, maybe get an upgraded tranny.
The only problem I have is sometimes (not often) I can't get it into first, its like it is locked and I'll have to go down to second and then first to take off.

PROBLEM- STREET RACING.
SOLUTION- DON'T RACE IN A xB!!!!
I have a 08 xb, 21,000mi. 5 spd. occasionally hot rod it, but 0 (ZERO0 tranny problems. WHY? I DON'T STREET RACE!!!! not only are you going to ruin your car, but also maybe your driving record....
