Gearbox failure help please!


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

So yesterday I was out on christmas drift practise and on my second run I completely lost 3rd gear... I can shift into it with or without clutch pedal pressed, but there are no extra noises or something that might seem wrong with the gearbox!

It app happen on a very wet surface and 205/55 r16 rubber, so I don't thing the gear shattered, because I've been banging 3rd gear all season on dry surface and even clutch kicking on 265/35 r18 rubber!

I's an 03 de model with a weak gearbox... It already had bad synchros from 2nd to 3rd gear, but that shouldn't be the case right?

Sounds like internal failure, so without getting to technical, once you pull the box and inspect the internals you will soon see what is wrong.

 

Perhaps a replacement CD009 would be the most economical answer.

Yeah, but it's wierd that there is no rattle on extra noises from the gearbox, it just won't engage 3rd gear...

But what's an average price for cd009 boxes today?
