xt2005bonbon Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 30 mn ago at a traffic light, I launched the car in first and kinna decided to go WOT.

After a few tries, still couldn't get into second even with the engine off. Not being able to shift into second has happened to me with an N/A 99 outback a few years ago and somehow it came back to normal a few days later. Do you think it'll come back? Syncro's busted? Man I hope not. I am always careful when I shift (at least try to)...Cause I know these syncros are finicky.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
