Have you any update to your problem? As I'm having a problem time with mine. Mine changes gear with the clutch down to all gears, but the moment I start driving and get around 30mph plus it becomes a battle to get the car in gear!! >:(  Am I looking at a clutch problem or could this be gearbox related. I have bled the clutch and changed the oil to no improvement.  Getting quoted £280 for a clutch change out which doesn't seem too extravagent. Any ideas chaps. Gearboxes and clutches are past my ability :'(

It is NOT Dex 3!!!

Get genuine....1.2 litres required and its pretty cheap.

Also, put the box in gear and foot on the clutch when you start the car......


My tractor's a bit stiff too, especially when cold, but otherwise gear-changes are fine.
Exactly what oil should I get hold of, and is it refilled to the bottom of the filler plug?

Gettin' seriously hacked-off by those who ignore the wisdom of proven experience ... and Forum guidelines.

dont the manuals use the horrible selector cables that stretch?


the manual box selector is a straight shaft that goes straight into the box as the box is under the gear stick
