Over the past six months my gearbox has started to become vague.
Basically revs need to be matched prescisely before changing (i.e. if you engage first when cold over 2000 rpm it won't go in, if you change up under acceleration it also grinds )
Occaisonally when changing from first to second under load there is a metal on metal sound and the linkage feels as if it is dropping violently .
If I depress the clutch for a long period in London traffic there is a noise like the thrust bearing bending
The car has covered 120,000 with no historical evidence of a clutch change or gearbox rebuild...
Should I ignore it and drive the car gently like my wife?
I am planning to replace the clutch for peace of mind next month, am I being rash?
What specialist tools if any will I need to do this?
Thanks in advance for you comments
