I really hope someone can help me with this one,just changed the gearbox on my 96 uk turbo.Now when i accelerate hard in second i get a quite a harsh vibration through the car at about 40 mph?when i chage in to third and carry on accelerating it dies out?I've checked all nuts and bolts are tight and everything looks ok.I really need to get this sorted as i'm stickin her back on the rollers again soon to try for 300 bhp.please help a very frustrated man!!!!!!!!!!

 

ok......its unlightly that the gearbox is fowling the body as the mounts are quite good on scoobz......i would 1st check that the exhaust is`nt fowling anywhere , & check that the 2 brackets on the 1st cat are both secure .......the 1 off the side of the cat 2 gearbox is quite common for breaking & causing your symptoms.

Thanks mate, I'm sure it's not the exhaust though. It's more of a shuddering than a vibration? I'm thinking it could be prop related but i'm not sure?

 

Is there no one that can help?i hope not!!
