3rd Gear Grinding?!?!
I purchased a 95 Integra LS in Mid-January and about a month and a half ago 3rd gear started grinding whenever I shifted into it. I heard it was a common problem with LS transmissions. What should I do? Buy a whole new 3rd gear from the dealership and replace the one I have, or buy a new transmission with lower milage and have that installed? I do not have a lot of money to spend on this either, if anyone has any suggestions or advice, please respond, I would appreciate it. Thanks

First try the dealer and see if there is a recall for it. If the dealers don't pan out then try some local clutch shops and see if you can't get a free check to see if it needs adjustment or really a new clutch. Worth a try before you have to spend some money.....

The grinding happens when I put the gear in, and it happens OVER 4000 rpms. It does not grind when downshifting either, only when going from 2nd to 3rd over 4000.
