Occasional grinding in 2nd....
Lately when shifting into second I have been grinding. Not sure if I am just being retarded or maybe something needs adjustment.
Thing is i've been driving it for 3 years and never grinded any of my gears so what gives?
Any idea?

I started getting occasional balking going 1-2 and the odd grind going into 5th. Going 3-2 was fine though. Thought, oh, oh, not good, and I did wonder if I had been losing fluid, but no signs of that at all. I went ahead and changed the tranny fluid anyway, and both problems miraculously went away. Anyway, you might try a change if it hasn't been done lately. I used plain old Dex III compliant Valvoline, nothing expensive or exotic.
Plan going forward is to change the fluid more often and hope!
