Crashed23

Afternoon everyone!

Would like to have joined under better circumstance but had a bit of a crash in my bugeye wrx. I've hit a tree at. Low speed so is repairable BUT the gearbox will no longer select gears. The gear stick moves effortlessly along the 'line' of gears 1 and 2 but won't move anywhere else. If you push the stick to go over towards 3 onwards you hear a clunk......what have I done? :/

The engine is currently out so the clutch fork isn't engaging so might this have anything to do with the clunk? But the gearbox selection has been a problem since I crashed!

Any ideas are welcome!!!

are the gear linkages ok?

I'm not the sharpest when it comes to gearing...... How would I check please?

sounds like a broken gear linkage,should'nt have caused box any damage hitting a tree

Gear linkage?? I had this problem in an old Astra wasn't much to repair but it took while to sort it 100%

on my 106 a pin came lose which held them together. im not too sure how to access them but on the 106 everythin was easy access underneath and it was easy to notice what was wrong

Why is the engine out? If its hit hard enough to warrant an engine removal it must have been a hard hit most likely shoved the box back a touch bending the gear selector lever, hope it never hit the cam covers as belt damaged may have happened.
