Hi,
I have a 2002 1.4SE. It's on about 145000 miles and I've had it for seven years.
Recently I have had a little trouble selecting 1st or 5th gear. it is an intermittent problem. A lot of the time it is ok.
When it occurs its like there is a notch you need to push past.
I've read everything I can on the subject and have considered trying to adjust the cables as detailed on some posts.
I have not done much under the bonnet yet and I'm not sure if I am up to the task!
If it was the cables would it be intermittent? If it was the clutch I guess that would be pretty expensive.
As I say it happens on first and fifth gear. Can anyone help me diagnose this one? I have taken some video of the cables at the gear box end under the bonnet whilst the gears are changed if that helps.
