Chr15_h 0 Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 alright chaps, i've had a look thru a few threads bout broken gearboxes and cant find any posting saying they have the problem i have.basically i was being a tit, and in my over entusiasm, i fucked up, i missed 2nd, badly, (and i'm very embarresed about this) but since then, the car wont go into first, it just grinds and pops back out, and only goes into 2nd at very low speeds. is it the adjustment jobby that i have read about or have a ramshanked my box?thanks in advance for your help Link to post Share on other sites

legvw 0 Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Your 1st to second gear syncro will be affectted, it happened in my van, always jumping out of 1st, rearly wanted to go in 2nd, took box off and striped gearbox and found syncro mesh was broken in 3 places! Your gears will be fine (hopefully!) Link to post Share on other sites
