DSM tranny will not pop out of gear from low fluid level. A manual trans can pop out of gear under normal load from a number of issues. Seeing as this trans has 200k plus on it I’m gonna have to go with high mileage wear combined with driving it with that problem we already discussed. Aka the 5th gear retainer nut comes loose and shifts the whole gearset around. Being as it was driven so long like with the gear set shifting I’m thinking there was damage done. Trans need replace or rebuild at this point sorry bud. link to gearset movement fix incase anyone cares to know what I was talking about and already explained to Derek and Dave.

that guy should be wearing a helmet, and riding a short bus to group home meetings. the throwout bearing has nothin to do with popping out of gear. along with the clutch. get a bottle of synchromesh, bring it with to midas, have the guy read the label and tell him hes on drugs, then take the car somewhere else and tell them to check the fluid. ---

Talk to cky89 steve, I sold his friends 3 transmissions a while ago and doubt they ever got the car together. 1 of the trans was great, 1 could use a rebuild and 1 had a broken shift fork. I think I sold all 3 for 150. ---

Yes, I did that swap, but you will need to take the end cover off the tranny and install a viscous coupling eliminator. I thought it was an easy job The best mod you can do is sell your DSM, but I guess all cars have problems VERY GOOD READ ON TRANS OILS AND LUBE [http://www.teamrip.com/manual\_transmission\_gear\_oil\_recommendation\_info.html](http://www.teamrip.com/manual_transmission_gear_oil_recommendation_info.html) ---
