Well this has to be bad....i just bought my 05 tc w. 19,000 miles and i had it for a few days. so here is what happens when i come to a stop i push the clutch down a and hold it to put the car in to first and then it grinds......sometimes it doesnt want to go into reverse...i think it might be the syncros but i have no clue about manual trans..on how they work i can rebiuild an auto but not a manual

 

could be lots of things..but I would go to synthetic then sse if that helps first before you do anything else

 

i made an appt. @ toyota for monday so they will look at it and it is still under factory warranty so i have nothin to worry about

 

good idea!

 

we will see what they say and i will post the results

 

Might not be under warranty........but it could be your synchros which i believe are covered.

 

why wouldn't it his car has only 19k?...u should be fine! let us know what happens...

 

hopefully its nothing too major.....good luck

 

this happens to me too even though the clutch is pressed all the way.. what i do is put it in first then shift to reverse.. without a prob..

 

Certain things are not covered under warranty, ie tires, brakes, clutches, you can't say if it'll be covered or not, not until you know the exact problem.

 

well i drove it last night with out a hitch wtf i have no clue this tc is weird..i love it but damn i am still goona drop it off to see what they think

 

not a bad idea to get it checked out anyways.....always better safe then sorry....

 

reverse happens - if you cant put the car into reverse then put it into first gear ...then try putting it into reverse.
