Hi all,
I have a Fiat Ducato Campervan 1.9TD 2001 SWB, and the 5th gear creates a very loud whine, a bit too much to bother turning the radio on as it is so loud!
I had the gearbox rebuilt (New clutch, bearings etc) but couldn't find a replacement 5th gear so stuck with what we had, and the noise is still there! 99.999% certain it is a MG5TU box
So I am looking for some options...
1. Has anyone ever fitted a 6 speed gearbox on to the 1.9TD (XUD9TE) engine?
2. Can I change the gear ratio for just the 5th gear? It might make finding a part easier, and also improve fuel efficiency!?
3. Use a 306 gearbox for parts?
