Cost me RM 3K just as 'wptee' said but the gearbox is as good as new too. Had the same issue; when starting from cold, my car wouldn't shift from 1st gear, and may sometimes hit RPMs as high as the redline before I decided to ease of the accelerator. But after a short while, and sometimes when stopping at the lights for a while, the car would suddenly shift as usual. I know mine was faulty because of the way I drove; I simply loved to pick up at the lights or when coming out of tolls till the gearbox experienced a truly awful jerking motion when shifting gears.But ever since the overhaul, the car is as good as new. Gearbox was a lil' tight at first but it's loosened up now and simply a great pleasure to drive. Of course, I have to keep reminding myself that I shouldn't go back to my old waysssss.... But sadly, old habits do die hard don't they? ;P</blockquote>
