Kia Rio gearbox problem....
Discussion
I have a 1.4 manual Kia Rio, 2010 with 13500 miles on the clock. It's been at a Kia dealer for a week now having a fault diagnosed - there is a rattle/grinding noise when reversing.
Original diagnosis was that the reverse idler gear was faulty, so they replaced it. Then found that the reverse gear itself was damaged, so replaced that too.
Rebuilt the gearbox and road tested the car and the fault is still present
Anyone heard of similar problems with this model? I know it's not exactly the most PH of cars so I don't need pages of abuse for the crap car I drive
Getting a bit worried that they're not going to be able to find the fault and wonder what will happen next if they can't too
