zo0op Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 hi, i think im in need of a new gear box but wanted a second opinion before i splash out on one, the problem is it locks the gear stick in 2nd and 3rd for a second or 2 before it allows me to change up/down gears also struggle to get it in to 2nd + 3rd, sometimes and when i put my clutch in when moving i can feel it slowing the car down (it has a paddle cluch fitted)any help appreciated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bluebear Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 (edited) I'm starting to get the sticky gears on mine too, but it's not all the time. Tends to be 2nd and 4th though. Edited November 28, 2012 by Bluebear Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I've got epic crunch going into 2nd gear on low speed up or down changes, but its fine if im abusing it! really doing my head in. never heard of sticky gears though :s Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zo0op Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 Mines started in first now I guess its time for a box oh well suppose I can change the clutch wilst I'm at it as I'm not a fan of the paddle clutch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza AuA Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 i had trouble changing gears at first but that's because my clutch was totally fooked, wasn't fully engaging to let me change gearsonce replaced it now changes gear super smooth,if you have already done your clutch than itsprobably you gearbox syncro with needs to be replace or get another healthy box Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Taggy Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Yeah mine has the sticky gear change problem too, if i drive it normal its ok but if i boot it its like the box stiffens up, and it can be a struggle to get in and out of 1st and 2nd, bloody anoying, especially as i have just repaired the 5th Gear syncro too!
