My opinion is if you put in some new, quality gear oil (Neo is my favorite), I'll bet it'll help with the grinding.

Worn 2nd gear syncros are very common.

Doesn't mean the transmission is bad. It may run for another 200K like that.

Make sure that you are running the stock weight gear oil (80-90 I think). Or use a 75-90 synthetic.

I'd been using Amsoil GL-4 which is 75w-90 for years and it works great in my turbo 2!
