Man if I had a dollar for every time somebody caught a car dealer in a lie I could afford to make all of us very rich people.

I like to think of most of them as being one foot out of jail. Sometime I go to the dealership just to give the dealers a hard time because they have difficulty listening. I really do dislike almost all of them.

Your best bet when dealing with a dealership is to always assume they are lying to you. Because they usually are. Boy, I could tell you some stories

Take it all with a grain of salt. The story has changed constantly throughout this thread.

I think he means there are 3 sides to every story. Yours, theirs, and the truth.. meaning the manager probably thinks he is in the right just as much as you think you are in the right. Good luck man. It sucks that you are going through all of this..

<edit> - extra page i didnt click.. i guess ill stand by for more info...
couple weeks late in seeing this, but this is exactly what i have. issues with the 1->2 and 2->3 shifts. no popping out, but getting a little grinding and catching. bought mine in Nov.

if i pull it out of first and let is fall back to the center of the gear posistions, between 3 and 4, and then put it into 2, i dont have a problem. i imagine its just the extra time allowing parts to stop moving. of course this isnt really an acceptable solution long term.

with the warm temps today, I had no issues. next time i head past my dealer i'll mention it i suppose. and I'm in MD as well. heh wtf?
