I've seen several recommendations here to get an aftermarket shifter for the T5 due to concerns of overshifting. I have a T5 from a 95 mustang. Shifts OK, but I have noticed a faint grinding occasionally. Once the transmission is warm, I can feel the grind in the gearshift, and even slightly hear it when I rev the engine with it in 1st or 2nd gear with the clutched depressed. It goes away when in neutral, or when I let the clutch out and start moving. It may go away on moving due to the RPMs dropping back down. At first I thought it may be the pilot bearing in the flywheel, but it fit the narrowed input shaft well and was well greased on assembly.
Could it be an overshifting problem? What are the symptoms of overshifting? Would a new shifter solve the problem?
