This problem started happening yesterday about halfway through my drive home from work (25 miles). Every time I downshift into 4th gear, it makes a light scratching sound. I thought this was just me being clumsy with the clutch, until I did it again and made sure the clutch was on the floor. It only does it when I downshift from a higher gear. I can put it in 4th and back to neutral and back to 4th again and it doesn't do it. I have no idea what's going on... I can feel the vibration in the stick as it grinds into place. It's not loud like a normal gear grind, it's more like a ziiiip sound.
Any ideas? Hope this isn't one of those $1000 repairs.
Other info: My last oil change was about 2 months ago, and at the same time I had the gearbox oil drained and replaced.
