This past Fall I installed a Mitchell O/D for a local club member. Routine install. Noticed immediately that O/D would drop out of high range and into neutral when coasting in gear. Contacted Mitchell. Steve’s diagnosis was bad synchronizer. I removed unit and shipped it back to CA for repair. I received the repaired O/D last Thursday. Finished install and did test drive today. Problem is still present. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, how did you address it?
