Hi All,just completed another trackday, and the gear linkage pivot arm has again lost the rubber bush part giving lots of forward and backward slop to the gear link. I replaced this with a "genuine Peugeot" part very recently, and don't think we were being hard on the car at the time. Is there a proper engineering fix for this please? Cheers, Mike Red Rallye - the "5th gear" car |

I've only had one come off and that was on a car I bought with it already broken.... either buy a sachshift as it's a track car or replace it again. Make sure there's plenty of grease on it though when you replace it.________________________________________ Black power baby!

Thanks,Satchshift looks nice but pricey. I think I'll go for another standard part and hope it lasts a bit better. Cheers, Mike dsp |

New ones do seem to be made of cheese... mines still original after 145k of abuse... maybe get one from someone breaking a car might last longer than the new tat.________________________________________ Black power baby!

Yup,thats the part. What's really frustrating is that the 205/309 equivalent part looks to have a proper ball joint connection at each side. I guess they modified it to a rubber connection on the 306 for improved NVH. |
