AntiVen0m

got my transmission fluid changed today in my 2000 Camaro SS M6 and i noticed a couple times today after the fluid change..that when i would be coasting about 5-10mph and i would go to put the car in first..say i was coming to a stop sign..that the it would grind..this has never happened until today..and it happened a few times..and i had my tranny fluid changed this morning by valvoline...is there any possible problem..or just pure coincidence?

Your syncros, very common. Or possibly, but not as likely your clutch is not fully disengaging. If its the clutch it should do it in all gears.

is it an expensive fix

it may be you`re master cylinder.

Did you have them install synthetic fluid? I have seen that cause similar symptoms in the past.

Its hard to say but they might have installed synthetic ATF in it and now its too slick for the syncros to operate correctly .

AntiVen0m

i think they put in the standard..AF3 or something

i used to work a valvoline and i pretty sure that they don't have sny ATF in the guns there

AntiVen0m

so maybe i should just have it changed again and make sure synthetic goes in...

No you want to use regular ATF or syncromesh in it if you drain it .

Gilbert@Ace Racing

Correct. We prefer ATF Type III.

I like the royal purple syncromax myself but its all about the same .

my valvoline receipt says ATFB...btw it grinds when i shift into 2nd..but only when the car is cold and has been sitting..once the tranny warms up..no more grinding..it usually only grinds once going into second then after the car running for a couple minutes..it doesnt grind going into 2nd anymore..
