My 7MT was built in February 2023 (well the Bronco was, transmission date was October 2022 I believe when I looked). 4000 miles, zero issues, it does make a bit of a noise at startup but goes away really quickly. Shifts incredibly smooth, a joy to drive on and off road.
There’s a TSB with updated parts, what more do you want or need? Now we see if that corrects the issue or not.
Hey there, Larry! Can you please send me a DM with your VIN and dealer name/location so I can look into this transmission noise concern for you? I'd be happy to see what I can do to assist! To send a private message, just click on our username and select "Start Conversation".
This is my concern. I had my vehicle at the dealer in March. They ordered the parts for the TSB, haven’t heard anything since. But, read this thread, I don’t have any confidence that the TSB or even the revised AB transmission is going to fix the issue.

W/out any other knowledge, it does sound like the clutch isn't fully bled. These are a ROYAL PITA to bleed
which dealer?? im in Ga as well
Angela Krause my service guy was John Herrin. Since they have done at least one now I’d expect a faster turn around for you.
Have to wait and see. If you’re so worried get the repair and then sell it.
I’ve had my bronco back for about a month, it’s hot out, but still standing behind my statement that even in summer it’s quieter than what it was before. I too hope that holds up through the winter.

Same no noise yet, after repair. But it was rarely noticeable in summer, and very noticeable in winter. Was tough to shift into 1st after getting it back from repair, but it worked itself out after a few miles and feels good now.
Mine was noticeable at all temperatures. I’ve got about 100kms on since the repair and all seems quiet. Wait and see
Holy hell...
My dealer doesn't answer phones so I just went down in person to see when I could get it fixed.
They told me the synchros are still on backorder until 7/31! And I was somewhere in a queue of 17k.
So I brought up my lane keep camera being out and I needed that fixed. The earliest appointment just to look at it was 8/29.
I'm so done with this rig.

They straight up lied to you bud. Synchronizer rings aren’t even close to being on back order.
That's what I thought. Uuuugh. I don't have any other options without a long drive.They straight up lied to you bud. Synchronizer rings aren’t even close to being on back order.
