Grinding when at complete stop? I’m thinking about buying a 1999 Pontiac trans am 6speed and for some reason gears only grind at a stop with clutch fully depressed down?
if I wait a split second then put it in a gear it will not grind? I have only tried 1st and 2nd gear. Both grind. tried searching in a few different forums for this problem and can’t seem to figure out what it is and nobody has any info on it? Please help? One mechanic I talked to said synchros are toast But if they was wouldn’t they always grind or? Help please?

Sounds like clutch needs to be bled

Clutch problem, dragging, may need bled, may need replaced, may have other issues.
Very unlikely to, be the oil, unless there is some really shitty oil in there, or none at all.
