trouble shifting 3rd gear for r27?

[scandezz]

Hi guys, i realised that my R27 has this problem when my car revving high.
It seems harder to go from 4th to 3rd gear when gearbox is hot.


Anyone having this problem too?
Please advise.

Thanks
Desmond

Maybe lower engine mount bushes?

Had this changed on my 172 and so much easier to engage 3rd now and reverse.

Is it not something to do with speed/revs?

I know in my mk3 (not a 197) if the speed is too high its really hard to engage a lower gear...?

hmm yea, ill probably monitor and sees how it goes.
Definitely not wear and tear problems. as its only 5000km

keep you guys posted
