I had a replacement gearbox some time ago now from API, all seems ok with normal driving, however if i am changing into 4th when doing about 6k revs i seem to get a crunch feeling through the gearstick when selecting 4th..

all other gears seem ok, wondered if this was a box/clutch problem, the clutch plate was changed while the box was out, cars done 80k..

Also very rare but it sometimes seems to jump when selecting 1st, again not a horrible crunch noise! just feels like you can feel the cogs! This might be down to me tho as when it happens i realise the clutch is not "right" the way down on floor.

My MY99 was the same a good gearbox oil during a service fixed the 4th gear crunch !

 

Can l help ? When did we do it for you?

Give me a ring if you need.

Hi Dave, thanks for posting, I will have to check when i bought it, it was fitted by the Subaru Dealer because my car was in bits there, you supplied the box, time flies but i think it was the end of last year..
