Since getting the car converted about a month back the gear change has been harsh. Put this down to the short shifter which had new bushes.
However on the way back from a day trip 20mile round trip I found it difficult to lock into 1st and 2nd. Managed to get home avoiding first where I could. Tried reversing once when I left the venue, very hard to get it into gear and once when I put it on the drive.
Now had it parked for 30 mins, try to leave for work and not a chance of getting it into first or reverse.
So original gearbox owner said it was sweet as a nut and when he test drove it at Charlies rolling road day said he could hear the rattling too, and it wasnt from engine but gearbox.
So, any ideas of what it could be?? Alignment of new box, clutch cable? knackered gearbox in general??
