Gear box issue August 31, 2020, 04:14:17 PM Hi all, New to this club. I have a 1989 GTI 3 door, only had a car a few weeks and went to my first classic car show today in Cheshire. Driving home i could only use 3rd and 4th (which made pulling out of junctions interesting!)can anyone suggest a good garage near to me as the car needs a service anyway. I am near Warrington but prepared to drive a few miles for somewhere highly recommended.

Re: Gear box issue Reply #2 – September 01, 2020, 12:01:36 AM get a gear linkage kit, from ebay(tierod) or mark carter. And a linkage kit tool, like mr pecks. and have a mess about, could be some thing easy. Mine can also be a pain. but this is due to the clutch cable, for some reason it works itsself loose after a few hundred miles/months so you could also check that.
