Not shifting into 2nd at high rpms?

[brady_f]

Anybody had any problems with shifting the M-82 from 1-2 at high rpms? Took the car to the track last night and could not get it to shift into second in 2 consecutive runs. Seemed as if it was locked out for some reason. I assumed it could be the skip shift, however the car has a BBR tune which should have eliminated that. Any ideas as to what it could be?

I got it into second on one pass shifting at about 4k rpms. The 1-2 shift still doesn't feel smooth even on the street though. Car has 800 miles on it.

ur typical mt82 issue.

See I didn't know it was a typical issue. I just thought the grinding under colder conditions was the extent of the tranny issues.

some of the guys are having high rpm shift issues.

The high rpm issues involved the clutch pedal sticikng to the floor, which has
been covered by a TSB. I had it, problem solved with the new pedal assembly.

Great. Hopefully I can get it into the dealership this week to get it fixed.

may want to look up the tsb, print it out and call them well in advance before dropping it off so they can order parts. my dealership had no idea about the TSB that i brought my car in for.

So, it's still under warranty right? Maybe, you should take it to your dealership. I have a feeling they have all the answers you seek....

In addition to the pedal issue, some cars had the pressure plate bolts backing out.

Do you find it unreasonable that someone with a question about his/her Mustang would come to a Mustang website seeking answers?

Yeah your probably right, however the car is modded and I figured if it was something related to the tune or a quick fix that I could do, that I would just take care of it without having to deal with the dealership.

I hope this is addressed on the 2012 models!

I'm definitely with you on this because I'm about to order one. Does anyone have the answer?

 

[brady_f]

Supposedly there were minor transmission improvements made...not sure to what extent though.

Where did you get this information?

Someone had posted something over on svtperformance whenever I was looking at buying my car.

I had issue with mine not going into 5th at high rpm's. Then it became wouldnt go into 5th at all. They replaced my tranny cause a synchro went out. When they took out didnt have clutch or pressure plate issue. I knwo few others have had synchro go out also
