To add to the problem I posted, I also have had this ongoing problem of gears getting stuck. It has been so over the past few months, and it seems to be getting worse.
It mostly happens when dropping gears from 4th to 3rd, and sometimes 3rd to 2nd, where it gets stuck in gear, i normally let go of the clutch, and press it again, which helps it out of gear. I noticed that when the gear is stuck, and I let go of the clutch, the clutch pedal is stuck and bounces back after a sec.
I have been advised it is the clutch, but replacing the clutch is not cheap, so was wondering if any one else has any similar problem.
ps. I have also noticed a loss in power after 3000rpm in the higher gears, and at one point i lost power from 2000rpm, almost felt like it went in to limp mode. Now I really like the car, and wouldnt mind getting it all fixed up, but if i am looking at spending some serious money, I would rather put it on for sale for cheap and get rid...
any help appreciated...
