Gearbox?
« on: March 09, 2006, 09:47:48 »
Rbbit has started popping out of gear. Aparently this happends when breaking or slowijng down, any suggestions?

Is this really going to be a gearbox overhaul ?

Starting to think this car wasnt such a good buy :(

No lift at all.

Might have that off you if I find theres really a problem and its not something daft. 5 speed off of a 1.6 yes?

Its developing landy probs, a common fault on series boxes :lol:

Wear and tear by the sound of it
Kev

'91 stretch Discovery 200 Tdi
Hybrid for running round (got to go now)
Srs 3 Lightweight petrol (got to go)
Srs 3 Lightweight petrol, runabout

Not every problem can be solved with duct tape, and it's exactly for those situations we have WD 40

Over 90K so possibly. Oddly enough no sign of this at all when she was offroad a few weeks back.

I'll see what she is like tonight and if needs must I'll have that box off you Suzota.

And if the box/engine is comming out I might treat her to some top-end TLC and cambelt.

If I had the space/time I'd consider a full overhaul and get her back to 0 miles.

Looks like it may have been something simple. Like not being put fully in gear in the first place because the mat had rucked up behind the pedal.

Will look a little more closely this weekend as the Snorke and some pads are going on, POSSIBLY I migth attempt the rust repair round the windscreen,
