Just grinded second gear on a 6500rpm shift and feel bad

Does this damage the gears or clutch? It feels normal. I feel so bad that I'm now double clutching everywhere like its gonna save some life ahahh. Im at 215,000 miles. 330i still drives awesome and i have Motul gear 300 racing oil in it.

If it feels fine...it's fine.

I don't think it will make a difference, and totally understand the feeling. No worries...

Grinding gears isn't nearly as bad as it sounds.

Prematurely letting go when we get too excited happens to the best of us.

As everyone said, grinding once won't damage anything. Good luck on your next 100k mi
