My gearbox is making a very unpleasant grinding sound whenever I change into 6th at any speed above about 55mph. I'm pretty sure the synchromesh is going/gone but the next step is not really clear to me. I see three options: 1. Change the gearbox oil in the hopes that I can buy myself some more time 2. Pay for an expensive repair on the gearbox 3. Find a second hand gearbox from somewhere and get that fitted Has anyone else had a similar problem, if so, what gearbox fluid should I buy? And if that's not going to work how much do you think the repair options are going to cost? I live in Kent and my zed has 38k miles. Any help very much appreciated!

I found a nice one in Shoreham(Brighton) that I'm going to see on Saturday. If there are any Zedders in the area that is willing to help out a noob that would be amazing.

I wonder if there are any if there are any down here? Beer tokens are definitely up for grabs!

What do you guys think of these professional inspections from the RAC/AA? I'm a bit embarrassed to turn up with one of those guys to be honest!

Hi everyone, I've been thinking about getting a Zed for a while, and then since yesterday it's all I can think about! I found a 2009 model on Autotrader with 33k miles for £10k and I want to go and look at it at the weekend. Problem is the most expensive car I've bought in my life was £1800 and let's be honest I'm far from being an expert. My question is what is the main thing to look out for when buying a used 350? Is there anything in particular I should be wary of? I don't know if there's anyone in the Brighton area that fancies helping out a future zed owner... Thanks!
