Cordoba box in this morning. Shifts are nice and smooth now and there doesn't seem to be any weird noises. I haven't gone though all the gears as the box is very tall. I can hit 60km/h in 1st gear. I'll live with it for the time being.
So the car arrived at work today after sitting at the holding yard for a couple of days. Funnily enough the gearbox is no longer jammed and the selector moves into each gear. However, when the clutch is not applied and the engine is running there are noises coming from the box so obviously there is stuff floating around in there, possibly the remains of reverse.
I can't keep the car at work for more than a couple of days so I've got another box coming from Matt tomorrow and I'll slap it in friday after work/Saturday morning. If possible I'll run that until Matt gets the diesel boxes in and then do a changeover (time/place permitting).
