I've been reading a bit about this problem with the tremec tranny. Anyone else having a problem with their 2nd gear grinding? I have an 2010 with 12k miles, this has only ocurred a handful of times, but it worries me.

Did it once to me, but after taking others' advice and pushing the clutch all the way down it hasn't happened since.

Even if they do issue a TSB I'm leaving it alone. It happens so infrequently that it's not worth the risk of having someone tear the tranny apart.

does it in the 2011s as well.

I have the 2010 clutch kit and have no problem pounding it quick and hard into 2nd

hahaha

sorry that sounds pretty funny read back


Anyway I think it is the 2010+ trannys and not the clutch

I had this issue prior to getting the TSB done. It would regularly not go into second shifting near red line. After the TSB, never misses a shift.

It's normal.......

Just google TR6060 second gear grind.

It happens on all platforms. It isn't frequent enough for most to warrant tearing the transmission down and Tremec has never stated there is a problem with a fix.
