Transmission problems

[mystic]

I've got a 99 GTS with 30k miles and it feels like my transmission is going. Car sometimes has a hard time getting into third gear. Also...car doesnt like going into reverse. What could my problem be? clutch issue?

Syncro-Issue. Tranny will have to be re-built or swapped out under warrantee, pretty common problem. I had mine done locally and it cost about $1800 parts and labor. The parts were the most expensive thing.

Is the Fluid level ok? Are you still running Dexron III or was it changed to Gear Lube?

If it was a clutch issue, it would grind a little before going into gear.

Are you running the stock shifter or do you have a B&M Ripper shiffter?
