3rd gear issues - 30/04/06 04:08 PM

My mother-in-law's Xterra is having problems. She drives a 2000 XE manual 4wd. For about 9 months or so, her tranny wants to throw 3rd out and shift into neutral...especially when compression breaking on hills. Any thoughts? Is this a common thing that I have not heard of?

well it sounds like the only logical thing would be......

synch rings...again.

very common break for most manual tranny vehicles.
