gearbox problems help!!!
« on: 05 June 2012, 16:37 »
I had taken my gearbox out because the speedo drive fell inside  :cry: the specialist got the speedo drive out and rebuilt  the box. 020 gearbox 5 speed
I have just put it back in the car and when I put the clutch in it there is a loud sound like something is catching in the box. (sounds ok when clutch out)
its had new bearings including release bearing, oil change, ect, any ideas anyone??

Also there is a rod that goes through the gearbox (at end casing) with a spring on the end that has come out and wont go back in!!! ahhhhh  :sick:

Then take it back to the specialist. You will have some sort of guarantee of work, and by the sounds of it, they've f**ked something up.  :rolleyes:

Sounds like something relating to the new internal clutch release bearing :/
