Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2003 nissan 350z and i'm having problems with grinding when i shift into 3rd gear(manual) i have only 20k miles on my stock car no major modifications done. i have taken it to nissan and they tried to duplicate the problem but nothing was found and when they told me to drive it i found my car shifting like butter i was amazed on how smooth it was. after a few days the problem is back like it was temporarily fixed or something because it gradually started getting to where it was before i took it in. now i don't know if i should take it back or am i stuck. i have done some talking with other "z" owners on a well known message board and over the years hundreds have got their transmission replaced and hundreds haven't depending on dealerships. *nm
