Hey guys,

Last night I was out enjoying the car, but I had been having trouble hitting 4th gear consistantly...I couldn't figure out why when I was power shifting I couldn't hit it everytime...

Then I noticed my shift **** was loose! I turned it a full circle and it tightened up everything...the shifter even feels 10 times better and more sturdy

I guess when i was power shifting, the **** kept moving and directing me into the gate...now its perfect and I have no complaints...

could be a quick fix for some of you...mine was loose from factory

 

Keep power shifting and your whole tranny is going to be loose...

 

I think I need to check mine, I get a vibration from the shift **** that causes a "buzz" noise when the car is cold.

 

it was happening while normal shifting too..but I didnt mean shifting without letting off the gas..i just meant hard shifting, sorry for the mix up...but either way, not the point of this thread anyways

 

If you buy a mustang and never power shift then just go back to ford and trade it in for a fusion or something

 

i agree if your going to take it to 7000 rpm n let off the gas to change gears its just wasting gas

 

I guess I mean driving it a bit harder then your avg car

 

Hence the trans complaints...

 

so just because a couple people are having issues with their transmissions...its going to stop you from enjoying the car your bought to enjoy?

doesn't make much sense to me..but to each their own!

amazing what the internet can do to people's minds lol

 

Sorry i dont think the complaints have much to do with powershifts...
The cars not built to be babied...if you wreck the tranny well...thats why they offer an extended warrnty

 

There's a big difference between driving it hard and abusing it.

there are guys with shifting problems that haven't done any hard driving at all.

I would guess though that even with a well designed/built factory transmission, the clutch would probably be dead before the transmission.

After reading what numerous speed shops have said about the MT82 though, I would never even power shift my car.

 

X2^

Just look at It compared to a t56 or 3650 lol
