Well I have a 5 speed, and love it. But today as I was downshifting to 4th, my dumb butt released the clutch too early and heard a really fast but short gear grind. Ugghhh I am soo frustrated w/ myself right now , this is only my second time I've grinded the tranny but sound wise, it was the worst. Should I be trippin, did I just kill the gears in my tranny???

wow, seriously dude? stop crying. while grinding gears is never good for a transmission, it happens to everybody once in a while, it really isn't something to be spazzing out over. your transmission is fine. if every transmission grind destroyed a treansmission, nobody would drive manual anymore cuz all those rebuilds would get expensive, hell, nobody could learn how to drive manual cuz nobody would want them to mess their transmission up that badly.

so just calm down, your transmission is fine.

Yea seriously it is alright, happens to everybody that drives a stick from time to time. I do it sometimes when I am not really paying attention, your tranny will be just fine.

it happens, you'll think your a natural and just make an accident, have a bad day. They better be stronger than that, nice to see people care though.
