It's an A reg 8v with 96000m, Been told to be wary of gearboxes, are these strong or should i replace it as a matter of course?

If the gearbox is showing no problems i would maybe change the oil and forget about it.  :grin:

A slipping clutch=new clutch? If so, how easy/difficult is this to do? Or could it be a knackered clutch cable?
