Ouch!
I bought a new TKO600 almost 2 years ago and it's still brand new in the box as I got sick and didn't touch the car for a year+. Sure hope this works out for you but I cringe every time I hear someone has a TKO issue. Please let us know what happens.Todd

Hmm , the shifter stops aren't misadjusted are they ?
I can't tell a lot of detail from the sound on the video , but it sounds like it's barely grinding in 5th gear .
Call American Powertrain.
They are good guys and are helpful ..Jeff Tate

I've been in touch with American Powertrain, but we haven't been able to come to a resolve yet.
I havent adjusted anything on this transmission, so i am not sure what you are referring to by "shifter stops" Please elaborate.
There is a very distinctive grind in 5th gear and its not pleasant. The first video shows it starting around the 9 second mark when i shift from 4th to 5th. This car is going to mecum next month, so i need to resolve these issues quickly.
