Which is already broken and needs replacement and will be about the same price to get it replaced as changing the synchro... On a gearbox that has had components fail in it, so bits of the synchro are now floating round in the gearbox... You can pick up a box for about £50 and it'll cost you maybe £100-150 to drop it and put a new one in.
Or get some forum members over and feed them bacon, chocolate digestives, beer and curry and I'm sure they'll help you do it.
There was a lot of rattling pre clutch/oil change last week but now it's gone, so hoping it shouldn't need an oil change.
If it's an easier (and cheaper) job to just replace the synchro, i'd rather do that for the time being then consider changing the whole box if it gets worse in the future
