    there is always a warm fuzzing feeling when that tiny small job actually goes to plan and not turn into a big pain in the a$$

    Got same problem with my leon mk2. Only go in R,1,3 n 5
    2,4,6 only went in half way n grinds.
    Think i stretched the gear cable for 2, 4 n 6

      @@dillon84 there’s plenty of adjustment in the linkages mate so lock it in neutral and try and few adjustments see how you get on, if the cable is dead it’ll become clear fairly quickly but they are fairly difficult cables to stretch so you might well get away with making some adjustments

      @custombodyrepair yes your spot on.
      I've rung so many garages today for quotes and advice n some r saying gearbox, clutch it'll cost u 1k
      I'm no expert but it's defo not the gear box or clutch.
      Alot of mechanics have agreed with me n said yeah I think it could be as simple as adjusting or a cable.

    I didnt quite catch that bit dislexic lol.. do you have to push the linkages away from the plastic thread.. or pull it all the way in?

      Just basically make sure it’s nicely centred and when I do them I pull both the plastic adjuster and the treaded rod toward each other just to take out the play between the 2 mate 👍
