Hey people's,
Hope you guys had a great New year's. I'm reaching out for some insight about an issue I've been noticing becoming more and more since buying my car. I have a 2018 Subaru Impreza Sport 5MT, purchased brand new.
I've noticed that every once and awhile, I will start from a stop, go into first no problem, depress cluch, get up to speed, press clutch, neutral, and then attempt second gear, only to get greeted by a fantastic sound of syncro s slapping the gears. I then proceed to try again, knowing I am fully pressed in with the clutch, to yet again be greeted with a small grind, then I need to depress, and repress the clutch, and it goes in peachy. This all happens in a matter of 4-5 seconds as i frantically try to put it in gear. It'll happen once and a while in third, but not nearly as bad.
This doesn't happen all the time, and it's bugging the crap out of me when it happens because ik this sort of messup and do some serious wear on the syncros. And I may have to adjust my habits as well, which is why I'm looking for some insight about this.
It could very well be I'm a terrible shifter.
I look forward to everyone chiming in about it.
