AC Delco modified synchromesh > AMSOILEverybody having 2nd gear issues. Have y’all tried Amsoil MTF?
On a R or sport hatch ?After owning an si, Rsx. Type s, and now even 2017 civic sport hatch I must say the second gear grind is real. Only real cure is to granny shift 1-2. Sometimes second gets notchy when shifting too quickly. It needs time for you to depress the clutch all the way in and slide it in gently. Who has time for that right lol. It just seems Honda notorious for that second gear still.
I don’t have any gear grinds. Just decided to drop in to see if anyone had used this fluid. Figured it might help someone else out , but thanks for the response anyways budHere come all of the uninformed people who didn’t bother to read the thread
Sometimes the gearbox is so crisp and rewarding. Other times... it feels like shifting through a jar of marbles. I have tried Amsoil Synchromesh and Redline MTL. Redline is the best so far but I'm still looking for smoother action.Just had my first 2nd gear grind on my 2020 last night at 4500km. I adjusted the CMC and 2nd feels a little bit better but still getting the 4 to 5 lockout pretty frequently. Not really a fan of the higher bite point but I'll just have to get used to it.
Picked up some AC Delco Synchromesh Friction Modified and going to change the fluid tonight. Hopefully it helps, been pretty disappointed with this gearbox.
