transmission packed it in
yeah, so that happened.
Last session of a 2 day event at lime rock
117k miles on stock G86.00 tranny
Motor is 3.2L with some mods, about 290bhp.
always shifted pretty good, fluid was fresh
no name straight, I dialed 4, but no-one was home.
The shifter will click into the gate, but it acts like its in neutral...no drive whatsoever. Shifted ok into rest of the gears, but occasionally didn't want to go into 1st or 5th.
Drive home was an interesting mix of tinks, clunks, and thwaps as whatever shrapnel got bounced around in there.
Tranny is no doubt toast as it now grinds horribly in third. But I'm wondering if this was a gear teeth stripping or shift fork issue and if there is any remedy? I will take the tranny apart when its out but I'm curious if anyone has a guess.
Sadly the G86.00 is hard to find and pricey, so a low mile G86.01 is on its way.
