Wierd Gear Changing....
The wierdest thing happened to me today i have been driving for about 20 min and i come up to a stop. I put the clutch in and wait till almost stopped and put it in first gear to start off again. Well when i put it in first it rattled it really bad almost as if it was going in and out of gear really fast and made kind of a grinding noise. I know what your thinking and no i had my clutch all the way in the entire time. anyone know whats the deal with this.

I had a similar experience, like even with the clutch all of the way in, the synchros were still engaging a bit. Same conditions/frequency, very occassionaly (once or twice) during a rolling stop.
At first I thought that I may have not fully depressed the clutch, except that my clutch doesn't seem to be enganged until it's 1/2 to 2/3 released, so even that hypothetical tiny little bit should not have mattered.

that happens to me every now and then just don't force it in wait for it to go in. also another thing i noticed is i can't hear those or feel the noises when i'm shifting anymore like somethings moving. i can't explain it but someone might what i mean.
