I tried what PCAR964 suggested and put the 993 into 2nd gear while it was parked on Thursday. Today when I went to drive it, Voila! the second gear crunch was not there. I suppose there could be a problem with lubrication when the tranny is cold, and this technique remedies that. Sounds odd, but it works, and that is good enough for me..

Glad to hear it works for someone else! Still don't knowwhy it works, but here we are

Anyone else try it yet?

It worked for me too...

cool, way cool! i will try that also, what a great discovery you made, i always have that problem when starting out in cold weather! thank-you for sharing!

it did not work for me (although mine isn't really a *crunch*; it isn't that severe)

pcar964

mine wasn't a crunch either, just stiff. Any transmission gurus out there want to help shed some light on this?? Anyone?

Interesting - it worked for me and mine was only stiff too (no crunch or grind) when cold...
