My 54 plate leon has developed a gearbox whine and i can feel a notchy vibration through the steering. The symptoms seem to be related more to the road speed rather than the revs that the engine is doing. I have also noticed that it does seem to fade away a bit with a little bit of left hand...
Hi guys,
New to these parts of the forum - just seen a Mk2 Ibiza 2.0 GTi going for a song - only problem is apparently there's a crunch going into 2nd, so a recon gearbox is suggested - anyone got any ideas on price to buy/fit these?
My gearbox seems to be broken internally....so I'm in a dilemma:
Option 1 pay a garage to strip it down and replace whatever is broken.
Option 2 buy a recon gearbox and do a straight exchange.
Option 3 get my gearbox taken off and sent somewhere to be reconned.
Also whilst the box is off...
basically, i have 1, 3 and 5 gears, but cant get it into 2, 4 or 6. so its going into the top row of gears on the gear knob, but not the bottom row? and idea's if this would be the gearbox on gone or if it sounds like the linkage or something? i dont really know what the 'linkage' is, just my...
My Gearbox has a major leak, i could smell oil at the weekend which then developed to a noisy gearbox, i have jacked the car up today and refilled the box, run the car in 1st gear then had a look underneath the oil was gushing out from between the bottom of the sump and the gearbox? I had the...

Ok, went to go out in the car earlier and following happened:
Turned on the ignition, all ok. Start the car, and there are no lights on any of the letters alongside the gear selector. The gear indicator in the instrument panel (normally shows PNDRS or something) is flashing with the...

Hi,
Anyone any idea what the black pipe that sits atop the gearbox/flywheel housing does, and does it interfere with taking the box off? About to do a clutch change and this tube/pipe seems to come out of the box and go back in right next to the block.
Also, what's the procedure for taking...
Basically following on from my previouse thread of making a diy short shifter for the mk4 ibiza (I cant finde my previouse thread though but it was similare to this thrad).
I'm trying to remove the gear shift bracket off the top of the gearbox but it wonte come off for love nor money. It has...

Limped to the Seat Dealer today and they say I need a new box and clutch and it would cost £2600!! Naturally I declined and can borrow a family car while I contemplate my options.
