    tranny issue in a 87 325e

    bought this car and owner said that the transmission is going out that it grinds going into 2nd and 3rd.

    when you drive it all gears are perfect except for 2nd and 3rd they grind going into gear if you push the shifter hard into the gear and keep pressure on the shifter while you let out of the clutch then it pops then its in gear and is fine, no grinding no nothing its perfect once its in gear. the only time it really grinds is if you dont leave pressure on the shifter while going into gear then it will grind until you push the clutch back in like its not all the way into the gear.

    the shifter also has alot of slop in it

    does this sound like the linkage needs to be rebuilt or do you guys think its a internal tranny issue?

    thanks in advance

    I bought my car knowing how a rebuilt linkage can tighten things up. (ground going into 3rd only)

    I ended up putting another 260 in. :(
