gearbox repair

Post by JAMES » Sun Sep 14, 2003 9:27 am

my gearbox is now done and so far seems to be perfect,all the previous problems are gone and new clutch grabs better and is lighter(i seem to remember somebody asking if the rs4 clutch is normally heavy,mine is not at all)im taking it back in next week just to get it on the ramp and check it all over,so the gearbox co is 100% happy.
i can pm this garages details to phil t if anybody would like to post them here as he said in locating parts for mine he has found a brand new box at a very decent price.
i would be tempted if i hadnt just paid out for mine.
the only good news was that the gears in the rs4 box are a bit cheaper than that of the rs2(is this because they go wrong more)?
now i can enjoy again
