Tom Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 My gearbox feels different... Putting her into gear has become more difficult. There's resistance to the lever, but then she slots home. And she won't go into reverse without grinding! It feels like the clutch's biting point is closer to the point of full depression of the clutch. I reckon that the clutch isn't disengaging fully, which is why it's grinding? Is this possible? Or will I need to take her into Hyperion to get this altered? Any help appreciated.

rj Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 Hi Tom, My guess would be a dead clutch, which does not release totally and trerefore the syncro blocks. /rj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyedwardc Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 Maybe your gearbox would be more co-operative if it had a sex change. Everybody knows to get the best out of a female box takes patience, cunning and flattery whereas a male one just needs thinner oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oilyhands Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 When a clutch wears the bite point normally comes up the pedal rather than disappearing down it. Check your cable adjustment, it may be that you have way too much slack in the cable. Or you may be having a problem with the release bearing.
