Gearbox help - wibbz - 15-10-2014

Hi can any1 help me my gear Box on my 306 1.6 has packed up and wondereing What gear Box are fitted to them


RE: Gearbox help - Toms306 - 15-10-2014

MA gearbox.

Most likely triple linkage unless its an early ph1.

Same as on other PSA 1.6s of the same era (Saxo/106 etc) though they have slightly different ratios. You could use a 1.4 'box, it will physically fit but the 1.6 is supposed to be a bit stronger.

Cheers mate Its a 2002 so will have the tripple


RE: Gearbox help - darrenjlobb - 16-10-2014

Im thinking of removing the TU out my daily any day, its got a 4 month since rebuilt MA on it, with a longer 5th gear (very low rpm at 70!!)

Might sell it if you were interested...would be a good excuse to sack the fookin petrol off!!

all ma gearboxes are weak I went through 3 in my 1.4 I had and the saxo/106 ones have a slightly different top linkage as the angle is on the side and not on the flat, pic attached of the difference (the best I can show)


RE: Gearbox help - Toms306 - 26-11-2014

There are 2 different long linkages, if you buy a box with the other tyre can just change the linkage.

different bell housings too between Iron and Alloy blocks, the sport models got bigger sun and planet gears too
