I can't believe I've got a sad story already ...
So, I took the car in today to a recommended mechanic, who's had it for two days. They fitted the front spoiler, fixed a few LED lights in the spoiler brake light and it all looked good to go.
I pick up the car, get it onto the street carefully so as not to catch the new spoiler lip, roll through first and all is wonderful, pull down to second and GRIIIND.
WTF? Clutch was to the floor, nice clean shift of the box, I'm used to it being a bit baulky now - up to third, no problems there. Back down to first at the lights, gently into second and GRIIIIND again.
Car was shifting PERFECTLY before being taken into the mechanic, and I'd run it for about 300K's across royal national park, over to see a DB9 photo shoot at Olympic park and tootling round our offices - and not a single problem/grind etc etc.
So I take it back to the mechanic, and he says he's the only one to have driven it - he gave it some herbs in first and said he heard a crunch when he shifted to second ... then he said it was OK driving it around post this.
What do you guys reckon - is there anything else that would cause this - or is the mechanic who seems a nice enough guy likely to blame?
(Gutted as the Eastern Creek trackday is tomorrow and the 350 is back with that mechanic...)
