Re: Gearbox question.
It might help if you say what kind of noise, which gear, etc.

Re: Gearbox question.
Thanks for reply,
I put this in the mechanical section detailing all, left it for two weeks still no response. It happens in second & it's like a fine grinding noise, makes the same sound coasting along with the clutch in, any ideas? The van is a 2.0L air cooled.

Re: Gearbox question.
You could try emailing Aidan Talbot or sending him a PM through here. He will be more able than anyone else to advise if there's anything that can be determined from your 'symptoms'.

Re: Gearbox question.
bear in mind thou, Aiden does not work on Aircooled boxes..
If you get stuck and the box goes bang I have a spare DK gearbox here that I'm not going to use.

Re: Gearbox question.
Thanks I'll keep that in mined.
I don't see why it should go bang thou, it's only making a slight noise in second which only come about after the van got stuck in gear what was down to clutch cable adjustment not the gearbox.
