4th Gear problems MY98
#1
Just got my first Scooby a few weeks back, love it to death, but there's been one strange thing i've noticed:
The previous owner had a Prodrive Quickshift kit installed, which works great, but i keep getting problems getting the car into 4th gear, mostly when i try to shift fast, or downshift from 5th.
Did anyone else encounter this problem, or know what it is, how to solve it?
Thanks

i`m afraid its the scoobys week point mine is a my00 it has had a full gearbox rebuild becouse of problems with 4th gear and now the gearbox is whining and is due to go in for gearbox bearing replacement so good luck but you have probably joined the club

Thanks,
but even with 3year warranty, the MY98 is no longer under warranty now :'(
Guess i'll have to take it easy shifting into 4th. No way to install another type of gearbox or something ?

bummer again...
i haven't really paid attention as to under what circumstances the problem occurs, but i think it's usually when i'm flooring it, or want to shift down 5->4 to nail some porsche or something ;-)
Indeed looks more that the syncro is crap, and as a result the gear bounces, thus destoying the gear itself...
Any real investigation done ? Any real solution ?
Thanks
