I think this is exactly what's happening. I wouldn't worry too much about the new TSB for most people with the MT88 even if you have to get the TSB 23-2019. This feels like my dealer is trying to not spend their own money on labor.
I think that the technician did something really wrong...
For those interested in following, @Ducati1098 posted the info on the new 3/4 Syncro TSB here:
TSB 23-2219 - MT88 Manual Transmission - No 3rd Gear And/Or Grinding Noise Going Into 3rd And/Or 4th Gear
Thanks @Ducati1098
I recently had the TSB 23-2019 completed because of grinding in gears 1-3 (which I did also have some in 4th), but when I got it back, there was noticeable stickiness going into 3rd, it was almost impossible to get it out of 3rd, and then sticky again going into and out of...
Just heard from the dealership service dept (5 days after dropping it off) that they are about to take it for a test drive to see if it is the 3rd and 4th syncros that need to be replaced now.
Get this, he says that within the last week there’s been a new TSB that has come out to replace the...
yep, that’s exactly what I did. Now it’s been sitting on their lot for three days with no communication. Apparently the advisor isn’t it on Saturdays, and based on GPS, it hasn’t even been moved into the shop once.
OK, that’s enough of a rant from me. I know shops get busy, and they weren’t...
Just got my TSB done and got the bronco back on Monday. They said it might have a little break in period, so shifting into 3rd and 4th could be a little sticky.
After one day of driving it, the grinding is gone in first and second gear’s, and I can’t really tell in third gear because it’s tight...
New to the Colorado Bronco Club and just saying hey. Picked up my CO 4Dr Manual Badlands back in January. I'm up in Fort Collins, and new to off roading. It's been a busy summer, but hoping to finally go somewhere nearby to get the hang of it. Did the Off-Rodeo the year before, and can't...
Gotcha, so the front panels are easy enough to still remove by myself with a JTops on. And I am not concerned about removing the rear clamshell or connecting the hoist to it, pretty easy if the JTops ends at the back crossbar.
The only question remaining is how to get the middle panel off by...
I've done my best to scroll through all of this thread as well as the "JTopsUSA Announces Bimini Sun Shades for the 2/4 door hard tops!" thread to find this, so I'm sorry if I somehow missed it.
I have a 4 door Hard Top, and I have been taking the top off as often as the weather allows (5...
I just got word that my 22 Badlands MT is going to have the TSB done, and they corrected me saying it is now TSB 23-2019. I was surprised after keeping up with this forum for all this time that they knew something I didn’t. But was grateful to see the update listed on here as well. Thrilled...
But aren't people getting the TSB ordered and the parts are arriving with the -C part still? Don't want to go through the hastle of waiting like so many others if I don't mind driving with it until there's a confirmed solution. HOWEVER, if it means I can get the parts ordered and I'm just...
Anyone have a link to the TSB that actually lists the D Synchros instead of the C's? I'd like to print it off before heading to the dealership. The only one I can find linked still lists C's.
Mine has had the issue since day 5. I'm at around 3,000 miles now and it makes the noise constantly...
Not quite on track. I had 3 delays, but finally hit my production week… a week ago and it hasn’t changed. Be patient and temper your expectations!
Looks like there are still chip delays. And who knows what other delays there could be between now and delivery. Still though, after more than 2...
