Default M6, Tranny Problems :(

My shifter is gettin stuck on fourth. Makes a grinding noise. The only way to get it out is to let off the clutch pedal a little. Its drivable, but it gets stuck every once in a while. I reacently changed my clutch, slave, master, pilot bearing. I now have a Ls7 CLutch.

Mine would get stuck in fourth, but never grind. I eventually had to do a rebuild.

Chances are the synchro keys are in the process of breaking, or are broken. This will cause the sleeve/hub to bind and stick in gear. A rebuild is inevitable in both of the above-mentioned transmissions.

I agree. It is always broken synchro keys!!! I would advise rebuilding ASAP! I have seen cluster gear distroyed because the magnet didn't catch the keys.
