Yep, have it only when I don't let the clutch out in neutral before starting off.

I know this thread is old but I'm going to try and ask anyway... My car has 42,xxx miles and is out of warranty but I have the dreaded 2nd gear grind. Is this something chevy may have recalled and they will put in a new synchro because of the recall or am I on my own for the repair costs?

Your car still has the 50,000/5 year powertrain warranty. I would take it to the dealer and speak to the service manager.

You're lucky. Anywhere near redline and mine grinds every single time unless I shift very slowly. I don't know how people drag race the manual. I've had multiple Corvettes for years that never had such an issue.

And when it's cold out, a simple shift at very low RPM grinds randomly.

Very, VERY, VERY annoying and disappointing.
