How to stop manual gears from slipping out of first on a chrysler crossfire
I had the dealer replace the synchronos and it continues to slip out of first gear. It stopped for several days and now slips again. There is no pattern to when it does this. The deale is at a loss as to how to resolve issue.

This may be from misalignment when fitting the transmission up to the bell housing. Bolts on one side done up to tension before the bolts on the other side. Check that a wire or something else has not become jammed between the box and the bell housing flange. Loosen off all the mount bolts and use rotation to tighten the bolts.. It basically that the clutch shaft ( input shaft for 1st gear is out of line with the main shaft and the gear is walking out of engagement.. Check also that the selector fork has been fitted correctly and that the gear is fully engaging. (selector fork in back to front and not enough movement to engage)
