Maybe it's just me but it seems like 1st and 2nd gears are making different noises than they used to. I have a 2000 s2k w/ 6800mls and the other day after a long day of racing around the city I noticed a difference. They sound like they're winding up, much like if you back up quickly in reverse. 3rd-6th are noticeably smoother sounding. Any ideas? I did a search but found nada.

Thanks

Daniel

VFX_S2K,

I know the noise you are describing. I get it sometimes also...I don't think anything is wrong bud...

I'd have to disagree! I got it all fixed...

My baby has never run better! Trust me! Take it in and get it fixed while its under warranty! It might bite you in the butt!

Check out this link to S2K.com, its a list of service bulletins (which include one that replaces 1st & 2nd gear).
