It is a defect in the transmission. . It is replaced for free. .
I got mine replaced about 40K miles back. . It is so much better now. .

Waiting for my JDMU sticker since June 28, 2007. . and still waiting. . . I have accepted the fact that no matter how long I wait or bad I want one, I will not be rocking a JDMU sticker.

It shouldn't matter but the dealer does not have to do it if your car is out of warrenty because it is not a recall.

Make sure that the part isn't on back order still. I called about the tsb for my fiance's si and the replacement part was on back order until the end of June. So just make sure that the part is not still on backorder.

well i dunno about canada, but the guy at my dealership told me (and I know the guy, my brother used to work there, so I don't think it is BS) that if they tear down the tranny and can't find anything visibly wrong, and they can't make it happen when they test drive it, you will be charged for the labor of taking the tranny apart and putting it back together, and they will not replace the synchro.
