Gearbox or Cluch

[Martin]

This morning and last night my 1.4SX 98 Bravo wouldn't select any gears and if reverse was selected it would grind enough to make you cry. Is it the cluch or the gearbox, up until yesterday I could hear the release bearing making noise but there is no noise now what so ever.

Could be the clutch slave cyl. check your brake fluid level.

Other than that it will be the clutch.

sorry to crash your post but how do you know if your clutch is on it's way out? I grinded into 4ourth last night and now i can hear a rattling from that direection but it sounds like it might be even underneath the ashtray any ideas?

Re: Clutch

I've been having major gearbox/cluch problems.

It sounds like there is a rattling constantly from this area. I had the clutch replaced, however to no avail. The clutch still slips.

I've got a new gearbox sat in the garden waiting to be fitted. And instead of messing around trying to get my old gearbox fixed (if it's possible) I just went out and bought another and got a new clutch fitted (Well this new one will be under warranty) so all in all it's costed me around £350ish! Which isn't that bad for a new gearbox/clutch fitted I don't think!

Should last at least another 30k miles (lol)
