Fitted a new clutch + slave cylinder and while I had the gearbox out I drained and replaced the oil.

I'm now having issues getting the 'box into gear - but only after driving for a good few miles. I'm 99% sure that the clutch & slave are working fine as when the issue starts & I get it into gear, the biting point remains the same so my suspicion is that the gearbox isn't liking the oil that I replaced it with (Halfords 80-90 It was all I could get hold of at the time...)

Has anyone else experienced similar issues? I'm going to change the oil for something better when I get the chance but does anyone have any other suggestions

Was the ppf frame realigned?

Thanks for the confirmation - will definately change it and report back


I had to pull it to the side to drop the 'box out but when replaced it realigned to it's original position. Would this make any difference though, as surely the engine & box are one solid unit when bolted together and as the shifter is part of the box there's no adjustment there?


It's 2 litres if I recall correctly. To get it in, I used the bottles with the flexi pull out nozzles and just contorted and squeezed until I got it in (phwoar!)
