hi, i just recently purchased a honda s2000 year 2000 black on black. it has cai and exhaust. i have a question though, i have a hard time going into 2nd gear from neutral or 3rd gear. this happens only sometimes. but shifting from 1st to 2nd never had a problem. any advice??

 

Change transmission fluid. Use Honda manual transmission fluid.

 

I agree with changing your fluid, but don't use Honda fluid. Purchase this, it's what majority of us switch too

can i just buy any Synchromesh Transmission Fluid like from autozone???

 

I tend to disagree with Mr. Francesco. The Honda MTF is actually very good and specially-formulated for this car.

I also would disagree that a majority of us use that Syncromesh, though I haven't heard bad things about it.

 

I've had good luck with the Honda fluid too.

 

No you can't. Some GM dealerships sell it, but its just easier to buy it online.

 

and welcome......

 

thanks guys.. and also, i hear a lot of noise inside the car.... i think its coming from under the shift boot not sure, but it sounds like this.. its a 15 min video so i broke it down so you dont have to listen to the whole thing...

as i rev up i think its gets louder...

0-2:50 revving up to 5k
2:50 - 3:09 revving up to 9k
14:30 car parked and revving up
15:20 car parked and listening from engine bay revving up
(that tick sound is the virbation from my phone in the cup holder)

it sounds like a chatter sound... anyone know what this could be?? is it normal? my friend has a s2k and he just says its just how it is... its loud lol...
