Transmission

Does anybody know what I have to replace when my car wont go into 4th gear it keeps popping out? Only when I get it up to 3000 rpms and slam it into 4th it will stay. I heard somebody say something about synchros or something. Can I get some help please? Thanks by the way it is a 04 mustang gt 17000 miles on it

You got it bud, the Synchros. Not easily done by the amateur, tech required on that one...

You would have really had to beat on that thing. I thought in Europe Mustangs were called Pumas?

I tried that ONCE and before I got my MGW I didn't get it back in gear quick enough and the RPMs went too high and when I did get it in gear the car went sideways. After seeing my life pass before my eyes, I decided power shifting wasn't that important.

Yeah I wont be doing that anymore myself, because the money Im going to use to fix this problem I could have used it on something else.

Breaking shit is cool.


This is why an after market shifter that comes with stops is a good idea.

With the 3650 you are supposed to take the stop out of an aftermarket shifter. The stops are built into the transmission.
