Its done it ever since the first time I really got on it at around 3k miles.
It's actually a problem that a lot have. Most of the v6s have it and a lot the v8s have it too. It's definitely not normal but I don't think I've heard of very many solutions. Some report success by getting the synchros replaced while others don't. But do a quick search and see if you can find the thread with the receipts for the work of a dealership of a member. You could try taking a copy of those receipts to your dealership and see if they'll do something about it.
