My 2003 with the NV3550 feels like I'm shifting through cold syrup. Hot July days and cool mornings, it's always a tight/stiff stick movement. At first start, it's super difficult to even find the neutral position... and in that position, the shifter will stay in one spot and does not easily move back to a centered position. It engages gears fine... it's just a workout to move the lever into positions.
It does loosen up a bit after some driving, but not much. I flushed and changed the transmission oil with Redline MTL a few months ago. No change in behavior.
I've read a bunch of threads on this, but many find a solution in using Redline MTL. Not the case for me.
Maybe the shift tower? Any other suggestions? Thanks!
