Fitted a quickshift turret and some metal gear linkages over the weekend,
it has made the 1st to 2nd quite notchy?
I have applied grease to the bearing inside the quick shift which has helped,
is there any way to make if feel more smooth?

Are the gear linkages you've fitted adjustable?

it depends which ones you have. If its all threaded bar then you can only adjust so much before the bar hits the inside of the ends. The later ones from miles should be left and right hand thread so they can be adjusted on the car.

they look like they will be a few mm adjustable but otherwise the threaded part is literally just to do the nut up against the ends to stop movement.

It isn't the movement is the notchyness (if thats a word) can it be cured?

Is that only since fitting the linkages?usually its incorrect gearbox fluid that makes the change horrible.

Yes it is the compbrake quick shift, i may adjust it to be slightly longer then? and i had a feeling it could be fluid, so genuine Peugeot fluid or is there anything better out there
