Can't get into 5th gear?
Hi guys,
Mechanic is going to at my car tomorrow, but I have a concern. It seems like after hitting vtec in first-second (never really go past that) I can't put the car into 5th, I mean it will be extremely hard to put it in and slowly after 10 or so tries it gets easier and eventually is fine, then next time I hit vtec it happens again.
Only after i hit vtec and only 5th gear. I haven't gone into vtec in 5th gear, and I can't work it out. the mechanic is going to pull the tansmission out but I'd rather point him in the right direction and save some money if I can. So has anyone else had this issue in their S2k?

"granny shifting, not double clutching like you should" - Torreto
seriously though, i think either your shifting needs more work or your synchros are going bad. Try changing your transmission fluid to Amsoil and regreasing your shifter. Theres a diy on it in the FAQ.
