Hello all,
Audi 1995 Tdi - 188K. Third gear has recently (I mean over the past two weeks) started to play me...I'm 99.9% certain it is the synchromesh.....but suddenly today 5th gear has gone.....It just wont go in.....no grinding nothing, just blocked...
The gear lever just will not move into fifth.
I have checked the linkage etc...everything looks fine....any ideas? I thinking new gearbox......please help..
|
|
If you are stationary with the engine switched off, can you engage fifth then??
|
|
No, 5th can not be engaged in any situation....I think the selector may have moved or something....anyway...in about 10 mins the gearbox is coming out.
|
|
Souhnd like the best plan, I was thinking clutch but it is obviously not that...
|
Well,
she is not out yet, but soon will be....sourced another box from Intapart ---£150 plus VAT (6months Warrenty)
I might take a look inside this one over the comming to weeks...I'm thinking selector.

Well the box is out.....
There is a large hole next to the spindle about 1" round. I think that part of the syncro from 3rd went bang ! ! !
Anyway, just sourcing a new box (intapart have one sort of..long story)
