Gear Box p00ped

[philip_wilson]

I’m a bit feed up today as my gear box is p00ped, every time
I change up in to 4^th it keeps crunching. It started of this morning
as a little crunch and now after a few more mile of driving I now have to miss
out 4^th as the crunch it tooooo bad. I nipped in by T&C so it’s going
in tomorrow so looks like a few days with out my Scooby.

Sorry to hear of the bad news as well mate - never good hope you can get it fixed without hurting your wallet £££ to much [].

couldnt be the synch mesh rather than the gearbox needing replaced or rebuilt could it?

mines going the same way m8 , when accelerating hard in first and changing into second at high revs im getting the crunching as well hoping its nothing major but always fearing the worst

The sales lads at T&C think it’s the synch mesh but will

get the tech's to have a look tomorrow. It’s a bit of a pain as I have only had

this car just over a month but good thing is I got a years warranty when I

bought it.

Had the Scooby to T&C today and Gumball was spot on, its the synch. mesh so its going in on the 17th for a rebuilt to put things right.

They actually stop doing it eventually. Mine used to do it from 4th into 5th then stopped and has never done it since.

I think when the synch mesh starts grinding its due to the fact your trying to squeeze every last ounce of power out the car on short shifts.

Get the foot pressed hard on the floor and change slightly easier and this wont happen. Or shouldnt.

Or mod the car to the moon and you dont feel under pressure as much to skin the car behind or to your side[]
