yeh the whine goes when the clutch is dipped and if i put it in neutral while rolling down a hill

Done a fair few miles now and all seems well. No idea what was wrong there. Still got the annoying whine to try and find now. arrrg

Well after taking off the linkage and tapping the selector with a hammer the box is working perfectly again... Wtf! Does this mean the selector inside the box is probably on its way out then?

5th and 4th can be easily selected by hand or by the gear stick. 3Rd I would have though is just the opposite way from 4th but the selector just won't move that way at all. I can't even move the selector up to even attempt 1 2 and r. It just feels like its hit something

Well after a bit of fiddling under the care with the selector it will now go into 4th and 5th. I took a pic, does anything look a miss with the selector? The clutch seems to engage and disengage fine in 4th and 5th

Cheers mate. I'll take a look after work. I'm praying its just the linkage or clutch and bearing. Can't afford 300 for a box refurb!

OK I'll give that another try tonight with the linkage disconnected. Do I push the selector up for first and second? The aa man who toed me home tried it and couldn't get any gear apart from 5th.

Does it make a difference that it won't go into gear even with the engine off? And neutral is only half as long as usual, I can't even move the stick to the left to attempt 4th 3rd 2dn 1st or reverse. I know when the clutch and bearing were shot on my 307 it would go into gear with the...

Cool, cheers Danny. I suppose all will become clear when the box comes off.

Ah right, I thought it could be that but my gearbox whine I've had for the last few weeks only happened with the clutch up and in gear, I was under the impression a that was more likely a bearing in the box. Knowing my luck its probably both Lol. Suppose I'll have to order a new clutch...

Just checked the linkage all appears to be fine. Would a knackered box cause this? ​Box off starts wed, hopefully I can get a clutch for cheap from a trader on here.

Well after a week of whining in all gears I think my box has given up. Wont go into any gear apart from 5th and neutral. ​feels expensive Lol.

I keep considering buying the samco but its so expensive. You could get an Sfs hose and breather filter for Bout 25 quid, problem is I don't know which breather filter size to get

Does that suggest I'd need to find a new flywheel aswel?

If I roll down a steep hill in neutral there's no noise. If I roll down a steep hill in gear with the clutch down there's no noise If I roll down a steep hill in gear and raise the clutch as soon. As the clutch bites is when the noise starts. But its only notable when rolling, as soon as...

Anybody? I dont want to pay out for a clutch and release bearing fitted for it to still make the noise, it sounds like a knackered bearing just don't know which!!

think you can only get em second hand now, btm has designed a similar system thats not as loud. ​contact fred

Mine used to pop and bang on a cold startup with my decat supersport. Since I had my remap I haven't heard a bang since, probably due to betTer fueling on a cold start. Even when really giving it some it doesn't pop, sounds a little raspy but you will need the map of you want proper bangs...

I've recently noticed a whine when driving. It doesnt do it when accelerating but if I let my foot off the pedal while in gear that's when I hear it. If I roll without it been in gear then it doesn't happen. Could it be release bearing related or something worse?

Surely if he's got the inlet off this is the same as w o t?

I'm a cheapskate so thought 2 quid on a nice strong jubilee clip was more cost effective than anything snap on. It did the job, might not be that safe though.

To be faire mate with those mods I don't think ull notice the difference between a map done on the rolling road vs one done by a off the shelf rs tuner map

Changing goes along the lines of Remove drivers wheel Front bumper and under tray Arch liner Drivers headlight Slam panel Slacken off bottom alternator bolt Remove top alt bolt and swing alt forward Slacken off belt using jubilee clip or tool and remove belt Remove jubilee clip and unbolt...

If your confident in taking off the bumper and slam panel headlight and arch liner then its a piece of cake mate. I'm useless and I managed it on my 182. The actual belt and tensioner removal and replace is really easy. There is a special tool for compressing the spring on the tensioner...

or possibly a faulty earth

ive got the poverty spec version no center silencer or cat. sounds quality when giving it beans. sounds good at tickover sounds utter crap when accelerating slowly and approacing 3k. very boomy on the motorway, have to be very careful where your foot is on the throttle. i find feathering the...

Faulty crank sensor won't stop it turning over, just stops it firing so I highly doubt your issue is to do with the crank sensor

Lol I know, that's why I just want the brass bushes for now, I need something to tinker with. Dan, that's good to know, I'll give them a try.

Ah right. Mines an 04 182, would this not need them?

Thought somebody might have done the same thing and have an opinion on it.
