Anyone got any clues why going from 2nd to 3rd gear would crunche and it only does it changeing up not down. A new clutch was put in last year so didnt think it would be this ?
Help would be much appreciated, Thanks all

 

synchro mesh on its way out.

 

expensive ?

 

The syncro no, but the box will have to be removed and openend to replace the money is in the labor.

 

Would it be best/cheaper to buy my own parts and get someone to fit ? If so what parts would i need ?

 

You will need th syncro cone you can get this yourself but i would rather let the person fitting it supply the parts that wasy its correct as it could end up taking longer the other way.

 

Ok Thanks All

 

Just had mine done at API in Leamington....

 

snowy - I had a problem like this on my P1 and changed the oil to Redline Heavy Duty Shockproof oil - and it cured the crunching.

Worth a try before you go to the extremes of changing synchros, etc.

You may also find that your gearbox oil level is too low - so worth a check as a top up could also help
