i've just bought this Cinq, so it's still new to me, but what is bugging me is the gearbox. maybe it's just the way they are, but, it seems pretty sticky and notchy. it doesn't really flow or want to come out of 4th easily. going into 5th is especially 'wet'. it just kind of slobs its way in there. it feels a bit like a mini bus i once drove :confused:

of course it's not terrible and is quite driveable but thought i should ask if there is anything known/obvious that can increase the notchiness of these boxes

the clutch seems fine with plenty of travel and a nice smoth bite

thanks

there not perfect gearboxes but mine fine slots home in every gear nicely 90% percent of time, occasionlly when trying to change fast it doesnt want to play but then fast changes aernt ideal :eek:
check everything for play inclding the linkages under the gear stich and as above with the cables under the bonnet
