GTI-6 Gearbox- Advice needed

[Sambarker]

Yeah, it's not so much the going into reverse at 70mph, it's when you try and select 5th, you go over into the gate area for reverse and try and push up, but there's no gear there, so you spend the next 30 seconds trying to find it, which usually ends up with you shoving it in 3rd a few times, then going into 4th and trying again..

I did this for about a week before I got pissed off and ended up with a bit of electric fence wire hanging out the dashboard that you yanked to get it in reverse. I've seen another member on here use a boot popper solenoid yank the cable too and just have it on a button.

"Another member" lol
