Gearbox buzz! - MINI Cooper Forum

I have notice on my MCS that on gear changes from 4th to 5th at high revs (5500>) the gearbox buzzes, especially when it passes through neutral. It only happens at high revs and on this gears. Maybe it happens to on 5th to 6th but I don't get many chances to check it out (I'd be doing 130mph!).

Anyone with the same problem?

Yeah, I just developed this. Recently the dealer had replaced the shifter cable for some reason. It started right after that.

It usually happens for me between 3rd and 4th @ about 4-5K RPM's. Getting it checked out this week. I will try to let you know what I find.
