It's here!

Just picked up the car today and overall very impressive. A few problems though:

3rd gear cannot be engaged sometimes and actually popped out a few times.

Some grinding noise is coming from the back

The HU behaved strangely for awhile and decided to pack up completely. It is now not responding to my input at all.

Other than tose the car is fantastic. It is what everyone has said and then some.

Try moving your seat forward

Maybe try moving your seat forward so that you can better engage the clutch fully.

Re: It's here! -3rd gear

I remember someone posted something, a while back, gear-engagement related. Try looking through older posts. I think it was around 6 months ago. Do a forum search, maybe you'll come up with something.

Good luck and enjoy it!

when you say 3rd "cannot be enaged"...

what do you mean? does the gear stick get flush to the gear gate when in 3rd? have you noticed any issues when downshifting from 4th to 3rd?

Re: when you say 3rd "cannot be enaged"...

3rd gear definitely does not go in as flush as the rest of the gear, as well as harder to click into. I can also feel that the gear level moves around more when I come on and off the gas than it is in another gear. It hasn't popped out of gear since the first day though since I am aware of the problem now and make sure that it goes all the way in. I am hoping that it is just stiff because it is new but the problem is the other gears are fine so there is definitely a problem with it.
