Difficult First Gear
Hey all,
In Nicks Mk2 there has been the issue of first being difficult to use ever since we picked the car up. Usually you can slip it into 2nd then into first and get it 90 percent of the time.
However, since the engine mounts were changed, it seems to be very stiff at going into first (from a stop btw). Alot of the time you have to roll 2nd a bit then select 1st on a few occasions 1st is not available and 2nd must be used to takeoff...
To me this sounds like it just needs a bush kit, like seen here:
NEW COMPREHENSIVE GEAR SHIFT REPAIR KIT 5 speed GOLF MK2 JETTA [191798000 191798211S 191711173B] - £18.27 : veedubmachine, Volkswagen Audi Seat Skoda Porsche spares and accessories
Would this be correct, hoping it's not a syncro issue, but it doesn't grind at all, just doesn't like being selected, only gear that it happens to.
Info would be very appreciated.
Cheers,
Aaron.
