[QUOTE="DEADLY FORCE, post: 13837646, member: 34454"] Like others are saying, oil change helps, won't cure it, and being very easy with the gear changes until it warms up, or it isn't going to like it. You really have to be gentle with it and take your time. I skip shift too in cold weather. It helps. Note: I'm on my second transmission as well. Both have gear whine, and cold start issues. I should have just kept the original one and had no down time. Getting. A good shifter and bracket will help significantly with the elimination of high rpm mis-shifts. On a good note, I inspected my clutch at 34,000 miles and it looks great. What's very surprising to me is the transmission outlasted the stock engine at 600+ Rwhp and 550rwtq. Just was too much "cylinder pressure" for stock engine internals with a Boosted up, instant hit, Roush TVS. It sucks, but if you want to drive an MT-82. Besides the minor tweaks, you have to adapt to its unfavorable characteristics. When warm, other than noticeable gear whine, it shifts awesome with the Barton shifter and bracket and is a lot of fun to drive. I'm supercharged anyway so people just think it's supercharger whine. Lol I actually like it! Plus if you break your transmission, you can easily pick up a used one for super cheap if you are able to do the install yourself. [/QUOTE]
