Hi Chaps,
I don't suppose anyone knows of someone who would be willing to check over my recently rebuilt T5 for me...I bought a master rebuild kit last week, have fitted it all back together, and at first everything was tight with shims in place, but has since loosened off.
The gear gate was also stiff-being difficult to get into gear, but has since loosened off also.
I am a bit paranoid and would like someone to check it over to me.
I am not far from Chester, so if anyone knows someone who would be willing to do it as a foreigner, I would be most grateful.
My local gearbox centre are not up for checking it out, they would prefer the business naturally.
Cheers

Tom
