Good morning guys,My gears have been a bit stiff to get into for a while, and 4th has been crunching, so I got a new clutch cable which made a massive difference to the other gears however my 4th gear still crunches after about 40mph, any ideas? Could gear linkages cause something like this or am I more likely looking at a messed up clutch of gearbox? Cheers |

Cheers,Are they easy or expensive fixes if so (Synchro)? Guess thats a bit how long is a piece of string. I will check my gear oil, all the other gears seem pretty damn smooth though. |

Check the oil level first and what grade is in there? I recently found out my box had sx 75/90 in which caused a crunch into 2nd now I have put the correct stuff in and the box is now faultless  You could get the 3rd/4th gear hub rebuilt for about £150 but maybe a second hand box would be the better option. ________________________________________ Team Nile 6 Team: 40.2 MPG 5 x a 306 owner! currently abusing type r's in a town near you ™  I truely live for the 306 ® Build date: 29th October 1997 Wednesday's car midweek madness  |

Not a cheap fix, labour to remove and refit the box if not off, Then the box, New Hubs are around £190 with VAT from Pug or S/H around £40.00, labour to strip clean and check it all over then I always recommend new Input shaft bearings as these do wear, re-shim, New seals (OE) so around £550.00 all in depending on parts ________________________________________ 306 Rallye Sptint/Race Car, 205 CTI 1.9 8v to name a fewRoad, Track and Race/Rally car preparation to your personal requirements, Full Workshop & Diagnostic Facilities New and Second parts, from Plugs to Turbo's We now also carry out Routine Servicing www.pugracing.com & FB Page, https://www.facebook.com/PugRacing Ebay; http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pug-Racing-Shop 2012/2013/2014/2019 Class Winners at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb & Joint overall, Class record too along the way, |

Have just learnt to match the revs. With the revs right it's the best gearchange in the box ! ________________________________________ GaryCherry Red GTi 6 |
