Technical Won't go into reverse w/out grinding only when hot
No problem..
The DogBone..is at bottom centre
Engine:g.box to floorpan
Mine was well worn.. relatively simple..
2 bolts.. but on my punto the exhaust stopped you withdrawing 1 bolt.. so job went to a local garage
£20 labour.. on top of oilchange £80
So £100 total
Improved gearchanges.. but clutch wear still made reverse crunch..once warm
Reverse has no synchromesh.. all forward gears do.. so more fussy.
I just got used to driving into spaces.
And selecting reverse as I restarted the car.. save £300 on a clutch job..

Hahaha, I am doing the same as regards to parking into spaces, doesn't seem to be too much of a problem at the moment so I will start investigating the clutch. I am due to do a service on her soon anyway so as she is on 104,000 miles at the moment and not far from being in need of new gearbox oil as the manufacturers recommend up to 120,000 when I come to replace that I may as well look at changing the clutch at the same time. Thank you for replying as it has giving me some other things to check/replace.

I have the same issue with my multipla. Replaced a clutch and the flywheel and it went away. A year later came back. Replacedc slave cylinder (there was a slight leak) - went away for a month. Now we have 30degrees heat outside and cant shift again!!!!
