Problems sticking in gear! - ben306 - 30-08-2013
Not really engine but no transmission forums to post in
Been giving the rallye some TLC as I want to get it back out on track in the next few months.
Anyhow, the last few drives out, if I hammer in in 1st and go to change to second, it wont do into second gear, with the gear lever in the neutral position, its still in 1st. After a few pumps of the clutch and wiggle of the gear nob I can get it out of 1st.
My initial thoughts were the linkages, so I swapped my linkages over for some new one at weekend. But driving to work today, its done the same again. Any ideas?

sounds like either gearbox...would first think clutch but if you can put it in neutral and its still in a gear then gota be the box
when was last time oil was changed? maybe worth a go
and ADMIN....put a freaking transmission section in for goodness sake!!!

It has regular oil changes.
Cannot understand how it could be the gear box tho?
RE: Problems sticking in gear! - Piggy - 30-08-2013
well withoit getting technical...
it aint the linkages you say and it aint the clutch?
whats left...the gearbox.
its also intermittent which is normally not the case with fixed links or a clutch

Engine mounts?

you just shouting out random parts of a car...or is there a reason for the OP to think engine mounts are the reason his gears are sticking!?
RE: Problems sticking in gear! - ben306 - 30-08-2013
Not the mounts. I've spoke to my bro who thinks its the box. (hes a mechanic) Time to get rebuilding my old box from the look of it.
Re: Problems sticking in gear! - SKoob - 30-08-2013
Worn mounts can cause issues with linkages and lead to sticking in gears etc...
RE: Problems sticking in gear! - ben306 - 30-08-2013
Im on Group N gearbox and top mount and group A lower so the mounts are all good

Have you checked tranny oil?
Either that or clutch isnt releasing enough / leaving load on the gearbox, does it do the same in reverse if your stationary?
RE: Problems sticking in gear! - ben306 - 30-08-2013
Oil is fine. Clutch seems fine as it doesn't do it all the time, just occasionally, think its just the box. I've an old box that Im gonna strip down and rebuild after my holidays I think.
