Car developed a strange one this morning.
When changing up from 2nd to 3rd, difficult to get in gear. Resistance with a slight grind as it goes in.
Changing down from 4th to 3rd - ok.
Changing up 2nd to 3rd and doubleclutching - ok.
If you put it into 3rd fast either way - ok.
Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks for the replies.
Knowing sod all about cars and having very little idea what the synchro gone means.
1. do I need to get it fixed urgently
2. will it cost a mint!!
cheers

Yes..

 

1. drove mine like it for a year no ill effects to speak of
2. a packet, labour's as much as the parts, unless you do it yourself

Cheers guys
Looks like I'll be shifting from 2nd to 4th a lot more often.

Alas
Not in need of urgent repair but will eventually get on your nerves and will definetly be difficult to sell privatly.If its under warranty take it back asap.
Good Luck
