Hello every one I just purchased a 2017 mustang ecobbost last week, and thus is my first mustang ever.
i have seen a few posts regarding this issue. Every fear is smooth but goijg
from first to second seems to be a nightmare😐. Makes like a thud grinding noise. I can down shift into second with absolutely no problem, just when going from 1st to 2nd.
ive seen post on here but no one ever seems to have a answer for it. I'm really
hopijg some one can point me in the right direction regarding my issue.

 

Welcome Steve, congrats on your first Mustang, sorry to hear you're having a problem.

So, the dealership has nothing for you in the way of assistance? Sounds like warranty work to me.

 

its going on on Monday I'm hoping it's something minor they can fix. I can see them giving me a hard time saying it's normal lol apparently from what I've read it's a common problem. Does any one have any idea what it is ?

 

Look at the Blowfish Racing shifter support bracket, there is one for the Eco Boost. It fixed all my shifting issues on my 2013 Boss with a Getrag MT-82 transmission. Watch the video and read the reviews (after the part description). They're all 5 out of 5 star.

​​​​​​​doesn't the boss have a tr6060?

 

So after you installed
you didn't get any more 1 to 2 grinds when shifting ?? If not im going to buy one today

 

Nope. A Getrag MT-82

 

Correct, the occasional 1st to 2nd grind was gone, as well as the 2nd to 3rd nibble, which was my bigger issue. For me this is an unbelievable product.

 

Here is a picture of mine. Very simple install with a lift, not to bad with jack stands. All work is done from underneath the car.

 

I'm going to get it and prey it fixes the problem thanks so much for your help
