- If your gear stick on your manual geared car or van (this is on a 2007 Ford Transit) is really stiff to change gear or hard to shift then it's probably not the gearbox, but just the gear linkage. Watch this video to show you how to fix it yourself in 30 seconds with some WD40 Spray Grease. Super easy.

Definitely the first thing to check if you've got stiff gears. Also lift the gear stick gaiter up and spray round there...
Make sure to subscribe!
Haha I knew it bloody mechanics at Arnold shark are at it! ❤your brilliant
Huh? Who? What? Sounds like you've been scammed? You fixed it?
Going to give this a try now and see if it works.
Keep me posted! Hopefully that's all it needs... 🙏
This is amazing! Thank you, I’ve just done this on my Audi A1 and it worked perfectly, saved me a ton of money 🥰 my dad couldn’t believe I’d fixed it all by myself ! 😂

Rick the legend
You got it sorted?
@RickTheSpud hi mate yes did it today and has worked great
Ace! 👊
Excellent work but how to solve same issue for automatic transmission
Thanks mate. Assuming there's some sort of linkage on the gearbox it should be the same. Your's jammed?
Hope this will free up my Peugeot 407!
Hopefully! 🙏 Let me know!
Rick would it be that if my transit will not go into first gear i will be trying this tomorrow
Very potentially. But I would have thought it would be stiff for 3rd and 5th as well. But definitely worth a try. 👊
I’ve recently changed the gear linkage cable but now the gears get stiff after driving for a while. Think this could be the problem? Or something else?
Seems unlikely but worth a try. Something getting hot and getting tight or seizing up?
got the same, its fine first 30-50 km then its get really hard.
Dunno. Try this and see what happens...
How long did this last.
Haven't touched it again since this video. I'll prob do it again before winter when they salt all the roads, seems to start it going stiff. 👊
Stiff shaft.... I cant say that 😂
😜😂
What does he use to spray it ?
Lithium grease as it'll last longer, but ideally penetrating oil like WD40 first if it's seized. But basically anything!
@@RickTheSpud thanks, in my country theres no video, i thought its WD40 but i dont want to ruin something, Thanks !
No video? What country you in?
You won't hurt much with WD40. Spray grease afterwards. 👊
@@RickTheSpud Czech Republic
And it won't play?
😂
😉
You need penetrating oil mate
Yeah prob should have started with that to be fair as there was no movement. If there's any movement at all, go straight to the grease!
Thanks for that tip. Just got us off the side of the road
Oh really? Ah brilliant! Hate being stranded!
