Hi Folks,
I'm getting a constant clicking sound when I drive in first gear. As soon as I change to 2nd, it disappears.
My mechanic mate (who knows nothing about scoobs) thinks its the 1st gear cog thats gone and the gearbox needs to come out and the cog replaced. Does this seem like the most probable cause? If so what am I looking at cost wise?
Car is an STi3. MY97.
any help greatly appreciated

yes, sounds like the same thing i had, lost a tooth off first gear, although mine was a loud clunking sound not a clicking, it also made a sound when not in gearkev

the simple answer is i took it apart and changed the offending cog 
only costs was having the new cog pressed onto the shaft, and new gearbox oil oh, and having a very kind scoobynetter with a spare cog lying around
