Hello All,
I had a new clutch fitted 2,000 miles ago on my 1.4 petrol and since then the gear change has been notchy and occasionally obstructive. Not going from 2nd to 3rd gear at the first attempt in particular. The garage re-checked the cable tension settings and said they were perfect and it was most likely worn synchro on 3rd gear. Yesterday I lifted the leather gaiter on the gear lever to have a look underneath and the rubber gaiter is floating loose. Should there be plastic buttons to locate the four corner holes in position?
Thanks, Mike
