super_supra Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 A friend of mine is having a problem changing down into second gear from 3rd she says it is very hard to get it in to gear, changing in to ever other gear is ok. But it changers up in to second ok. i have not looked or had a go in the car yet but am i right in thinking it sound's like the syncromesh. Any help much apprecaited Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
