    240g trans

    so yea today went for smog and couldnt pass because i had no 2nd gear, any idea what it might be? maybe my shift linkage, or syncro? b4 today i could only get into 2nd when under 3k after today no luck at all after 1st , i had to go to 1st to 3rd , driving back on teh freeway i was stuck in 5th ,after shaking it for a few mins i was able to get back in to lower gears. time for a new tranny or just go m20? this sucks bemmer fest is next week looks like im not taking that car :(

    Well, you would have to inspect your shift linkage to see if it's broken or very worn out. Could also try changing the tranny fluid, sometimes that does wonders.

    M10 5-speeds aren't hard to find nor are they expensive.

                  260s loose 2nd often as well, kind of a whole Getrag thing.
