Hi all, new kid here...
I hope someone may be able to advise? A problem has become noticeable over the past few weeks, in that when shifting from fourth gear to third, it is tricky to slot it in, resulting in my de-clutching two or three times whilst searching the gate, trying not to select fifth or first gear by mistake. Third to fourth is easy, as are fourth to fifth and fourth to second; it's as though the lever isn't centring itself properly.
Is this a known condition, and easily treated, or am I looking at a shot gearbox? Otherwise the car is great, so I hope it's not the latter!
Thanks for any advice. Cheers!
