I've got a Fiat Turbo, with the Abarth transmission. I've looked around online to other cars with problematic M/Ts. The BMW E60 was one, but their issue was a message on the dash board, and I couldn't match anyone else's symptoms to mine. I don't get a warning light, but I get very poor synchro performance in mild traffic, where I'm shifting often between 1-2-3 gears. This was yesterday, however the issues first happened during 90+F days while simply driving around on fifth gear and other normal driving. This car mainly sees the highway and long straight 55mph back roads. During this, I keep thinking I'm hearing excess noise from the gearbox, but I might be hearing things. The dealer shrugged their shoulders at me.
What do you guys think? What are the symptom of a hot gearbox so I know for future reference. Thanks!
