Hello All,
So I bought a Fiat Grande Punto 1.4 8v 2006 about 2 months ago, the first month it drove fine no problems at all, after about a month I started getting a grinding noise when I tried to put it into third gear, sometimes it'd go in fine and sometimes it'd just grind so I had to go straight into 4th, about a week after that it wouldn't go into third at all so I just went straight into fourth gear from there on and occasionally I give it a try to see if it'll go into third and it goes in about 1/10 times and this morning I was driving to work, put it from second into fourth and the gearstick jumped forward a little bit as I began to lift my clutch pedal, when I lifted it all the way up it grinded, now this happens everytime I go into fourth, has anyone got any idea of what may be causing this? I only passed my test a few months ago and this is my second car as my first one had a head gasket go so I'm not having much luck
Any help appreciated!
