AaronNorton_ Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 (edited) I've had the car a few months and ive noticed 3rd gear crunches I'm sure it's the synchro mesh that's worn as if I bring the revs up and match with the road speed it slips in lovely just on lower revs when cruising. Wanted to know if anyone knows any garages or parts people they recommend? Thanks Aaron. Edited August 29, 2017 by AaronNorton_ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AaronNorton_ Posted August 29, 2017 Author Share Posted August 29, 2017 I currently got "ROYAL PURPLE" 75W 90 in the box which I was told is one of the best oils you can get three bottles costed me £100 and it was lush but I'm positive it's a synchro on its way out.

federalman Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Third has crunched since I got the car 7 years ago, is the Redline MT90 the shockproof stuff? I had fifth go on me and there was absolutely no warning on it just all of a sudden came out of gear. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
