Manual Transmission grinding in 3rd..
Hi guys i guys a 2006 lexus is250 6 speed that i bought a couple months ago. I have put about 2k miles on it but now im having a problem with the clutch. When im driving it, it grinds when i put it into third.. Just a slight grind.. What could be the problem? Am i looking at a new clutch? It goes into third and pops out but for now i skip third and go to fourth to avoid future damage. How much time do i have with this tranny. I have 162k miles

Clutch wear or worn =
RPM's go up and car doesn't move
Hard to get into gear
Syncros worn =
Grinding into gear, each gear has it's own set of syncro's.
Popping out of gear
Not letting you in gear at all
I'm gonna bet the syncro's are the issue there.. More that likely from someone trying to shift really fast into that gear, it kills the syncros.

Do you know a rough estimate of how much that should cost me? My clutch doesnt slip or anything, but the bite point is kind of high I noticed is that normal for this car?

That will vary, but you're going to need either a Toyota/Lexus dealership with the correct SST and/or a good transmission shop.
Prices are all Lexus USA list pricing, prices may vary. You may need additional bearings, etc., depending on their condition and/or how easily they press off of the shaft(s).

Do you have any idea why it would grind into 3rd now I put the short shifter in? All other gears are beautifully smooth and the shifts are like 1 inch from neutral to said gear. It did have a very slight grind into 3rd before I put the new clutch and short shifter in. About 9 out of 10 shifts to 3rd would be good but then the 10th would ever so slightly grind into 3rd you could barely hear it. But now every time I try to shift to 3rd without revving and going to neutral for a second then shift to 3rd it will grind very loud and very violently. It really sucks because everything else is beautiful feels like a new car. I put a clutch masters sprung clutch and solid mass flywheel in, I had the original dual mass in there with broken springs and it was so jumpy because of how bad the flywheel was rotating.
