gearbox still clunking
« on: 10 May 2013, 13:46 »
I've just gone and had the gearbox oil changed on the car with proper oil bought from tps. Before it was changed I was finding it quite stiff going into first and sometimes reverse and was advised to change the oil.
But it's helped with 1st gear being a bit smoother but now the others are sh!te.

What is my next step to getting a smoother gear box  :rolleyes:
