recently as i change through the gears the change feels tight/heavey.this is during all driving condishions be it hot or cold not overly but there is some resistance making it a bit of an effort changing gears.
any one got any ideas neil

I expect you have greased all the linkage points. I just changed my gearbox oil, that has smoothed things up noticeably.

All the linkage bushings are probably full of mud since your little mission last weekend Neil....
