When changing into 1st and second gears (both when the car is hot and cold), I sometimes find I'm fighting a loosing battle with the gearbox. I get a loud crunching type of sound. This is infrequent (roughly 5 times in 3 months) but it does happen nevertheless. I have had to let the car roll along in neutral for a few seconds and then have been able to put the car into gear without any problems.
Anyone have any idea's as to what causes this problem. or how I can fix it?
The car has been regularly serviced since day one. All other gears work fine. The car hasn't really been thrashed around. It has 105,000 miles on the clock.
If I need a new gearbox, I'd rather arrange for that before it clonks out completely.
Also, anyone know where I can get my gearbox rebuilt and how much it would cost. I don't mind paying a little extra if i have to, but I want to know the work has been completed to a high standard.
Cheers
