Having recently said the 5spd gearbox is strong, I find myself struggling to down shift into third and also select reverse at idle (wouldn't want to selected it at any other time - ). Fifth is also tight. Things weren't too bad till a recent track day. At the moment third can only be smoothly down shifted to by double-clutching and a good dose of revs between. To get fifth you have to get the lever right across give it a slight back "wiggle" then push it through - not a fast change and sometimes it feels very "tight". Reverse is also difficult to get sometimes, again very tight. Initially I thought this was a clutch adjustment issue as the two locking nuts on the slave cylinder rod hadn't, that is they had screw themselves a long way down the shaft. There's no clutch slip. Third seemed to down shift OK on the track but obviously everything was spinning a lot faster than round town. Can anyone suggest what I need to look at?
Cheers
