hi i have a 1.6 d with abd gearbox crunching into gears stops if i ticklle the throttle a bit while engaging but there is also a grinding sound now coming from box sometimes still there if i dip the clutch any help appreciated dave

poss worn clutch / spigot bearing.

try draining the oil on the box, the drain bung has a magnet to catch loose innards.
if there is more than small bits on it your probably in trouble , also if the oil is filled with gold flakes your in trouble.
if it dont look to bad try new oil.

hi will try your suggestions many thanks will keep you updated regards dave
