Same thing happens in my 97. When it happens, it's primarily when I downshift from 5th to 4th. Would like to know what's up as well.

Synchro's.
Not much you can do about it beside rebuild the transmission.
Some synchromesh might help.

yeah that is the prob, dads 99 gt had same prob, to keep it from grinding when going into reverse, when you crank the car up go into first gear first while the clutch is still in and then put it into reverse, it slow everything down in the tranny and will let you put it into reverse. hope this helps

yeah my contour SVT did this too me under warranty. 3rd gear would grind unless i threw it in the gear VERY slowly. I had the tranny rebuilt by ford and on i go. Not even a year later 3rd gear went again and was followed by 2nd gear. I was going to get it fixed but, i was out of warranty and i didn't want to rebuild my tranny again just to have it break again. I haven't seen this in my mustang.

Oh ya, when you have the money to get your tranny rebuilt.....Just buy a t-56 swap kit from http://www.ddperformance.com/T56%20Kits.htm and this will not happen to you ever again. The t-56 is pretty much not destructable unless you do something really stupid. I dont know why the hell ford put such a s hitty tranny in the most powerful car they made that year.....1999, and 01 but halfway through 2001 they switched to the T-3650 ,,.,,,,,wtf why didnt they put the T3650 in the 99's ford is a joke, im so pissed with them i will probably never buy another ford in my life. The gas pedal broke on my cobra.....ford wants $85.00 for a damn piece of plastic. WTF
