Can anyone shed any light on a "popping" noise that is heard from within the tranmission of an N reg Peugeot 106. It could be a number of items, the clutch is very sticky shifting up and down. I think this is the clutch on its way out.
Can anyone confirm this?
Cheers

\\the cable emerges from its cover above the gearbox and attaches to the clutch operating lever. Use a light oil (3in1 or similar) and oil near the cable cover.
(had to do that on SWMBO's twice and son's)
The operating lever can bend , fracture and break (son broke SWMBO's - she was not please) - gearbox out job. Check by observation when someone in car operates clutch.
If all fails, it's probably the clutch plate or springs. Clutches appear to be good for around 100k miles with normal use..
I suspect the cable is frayed..- and a new cable is cheaper and easier than all other alternatives
