Transmission removal

[ExTREME]

Ahh, Where was Tachyon before? Now I might have some progress! Time to start all over. Got the TRE stage 2 yesterday in the mail.

Ironically the guy I was talking to about taking a loan out to repair my car used to own a 2g TSi. He said it was a tranny killer thats why he had gotten rid of it.

alright i'm puting the new transmission up. I got it up but i need some help to push it on, aka little brother. Looks like i'll be taking her for a test spin late tonite. I've never drove a dsm i wonder if im going to like it.

don't worry if it all works right you will love it.

Not to jack this thread but, I'm having a hell of a time getting the axles out of the Transmission. Screwdriver between the tranny and the axle? Matter which side is first?

[Shane@DBPerformance]

Drivers side is bolted to the block. Once you unbolt it, it should fall right out. You will probably need something bigger than a screwdriver to pop out the passenger side axle.

Yeah I removed that carrier bearing.. My boot is shit on that side too..

[ExTREME]

Swish! Got it all disconnected. Holy post-highjacking im sorry!

Transmission is in. I got 2 problems it stutters at 4 1/2 to 6 grand wich i think would be the fuel filter and its grinding in 5th gear and i got to hold it hard in 5th to drive it in 5th do i just need to adjust the cables or what its a remanufactured transmission from mitsubishi graveyard.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Just curious. How far off the floor is the clutch pedal when it is engaging?

I dont know anything about mitsubishi graveyard but I have read on Sheps site that a few hundred mile period is usually required for the trans to feel perfect. I know shep isnt mitsu graveyard but i figure that since both are rebuilds the symptoms could be similar.

Also, not really related probably but what fluid are you using?
