2007 Spec V Transmission Issue

[jbarbaresi]

I bought an '07 Spec V back in May of this year and have been having some problems with the shift from 1-2 and 2-1. I'm not terribly familiar with mechanics but I'm trying to get a better idea of what's going on. I don't know if its the transmission, clutch, shifter or what, but a lot of times when I am shifting between 1st and 2nd the shifter won't transition smoothly and it makes almost like a grinding sound and a loud click that you can hear from outside the car. Its not quite like the grind you will get when the clutch isn't fully engage, but almost like somethings getting snagged during the shift. It usually only happens when I first start driving and after a couple shifts it gets smoother and eventually goes away. I'd like to get a better idea of what it might be before I go to the dealer, because like I said it probably won't be making the noise or having the problem by the time I get over there and I want to know how to explain myself a little better than I am right now because i know i sound like an idiot. Has anyone else noticed this problem with the '07 6sp mt or have an idea of what it could be? Thanks.

I had the same issue with my 04 spec v (RIP),only did it when the car was cold but after it warmed up it went away so I never thought it was a big deal, just in case as the car is new you might want to take it to the dealer to make sure it is not a big issue, good luck.

did you ever figure out what the problem was or do you know where its originating from?
