Prolly a synchronizer

Or a gear

Hmm. Mine has ground into second gear multiple times. According to the dealers I have taken my car to they have never worked on a 2nd gear issue with an mt82. Bunch a lying crooks.

[emery2483]

is it okay to drive but just not try and go into 2nd?

[BERT]

out of all the trannys I have broke over the years, sounds like a 2nd gear synchro to me

[emery2483]

that's what I figured..

[brembo12]

these MT82's are a joke.....can you spell "tremec"......i can shift my 2012 Focus S quicker than the 2012 5.0......

I've had this experience on another transmission before, it's the engagement teeth on 2nd gear. Synchronizers just make for a smoother shift and no grinding, engagement teeth actually make the gear work. Should be fine to drive with no 2nd, I did it for 6 months back in the day when I was strapped for cash until I could fix it.
