Galaxy gear probs - Dave W
Ford Galaxy 98 2litre ghia
Jumps out of 3rd gear usually only when turning right on islands etc.
Ford dealer tightened gear linkage and when I told them that it did not work, they said that they would have to take the gearbox off at a cost of £450 and then look at the problem!!
Surely it must be connected to turning right?

Any ideas

Cheers

For £450 I would not let them take it off "just to have a look" there is another thread in here about a man with a Citroen who spent £750 for nothing on a gearbox.

Does the car have a shaft gear change linkage or cable?

Shaft I think.
Ford said it would take 7 hours to remove and dismantle the box,
that would be £450 + any parts

Dave, are you able to go to another Ford garage? I had a problem with my BMW, the main dealer had my car for three days mounting costs, at which point I told them to remove all the items they had replaced, put the originals back and then took it to another main dealer. This second main dealer looked at my car and found the cause in about 30 minutes.
