change your transmission fluids and diff fluids. Use OEM Diaqueen for your diffs, and try PZ Syncromesh or Syncroshift for transmission. Since I used it, it virtually got rid of my 1-2 clunk.

My IX is having the 1-2 clunk. I'm not worried about that I'm waiting for it to smooth out. What I am concerned about is sporadically instead of a clunk it won't accept 2nd gear at all!
Any suggestions? I do want to get the synchro shift but I'm not sure that will help this problem.

My IX is making a metallic sound at part throttle. It only happens at lower rpm when i'm i gear. If i put it in neutral while it's making the sound, the sound stops. If i step on the gas, the sound stops. At first, the noise started out being barely audible but it has gotten louder till there's now no way you can miss it. My car has about 3600 miles on it and i just changed the engine oil. I'm thinking that it's either a diff or tranny problem (i still have the stock clutch). I checked the differential and the oil level was somewhat low but not ridiculously so. There were no shavings on the bung either. I want to take my car into the dealership but i have a 3" TBE with a test pipe so the dealer might ***** about it.
Has anyone had this experience or have any ideas about what it might be?
