Clio 182 Titanium
Hi all,
My 182 gearbox is past it.
cant get 1st anymore from a stop. 2nd crunches all the time...
the gearbox took a hit when the car had a crash so is definately dead.
Im going to put a new one in on the bank holiday weekend at the end of the month.
but i am no pro mechanic and would appreciate any help or info that might be useful.
there is an old thread in the guides section but it was slightly confusing.
What is the best way to remove the gearbox? Is it much harder to remove the whole engine and do it off car to save removing subframe?
Ive only got the girlfriend for help although i have benched pressed a gearbox before it'll probably get me on the head.
its only on 52k will i need a clutch? as its a weekend I wont be able to get parts so need to order everything beforehand. otherwise the girlfriend will have to drive a stripped out mk2 golf to work. which she hates,,
i have a 172 'box to put in it. but the clutch release bearing which i dont have has worn a groove in its guide? is the 182 box identical so i can use its bearing /shaft? not sure what i need ill post pic of the new box...
please help need 2nd gear back and 1st would be nice. :race:
