Hello all,

Has anyone had any issues with their gearboxes when they get hot? Yesterday mine was struggling to go into gear after a brisk drive but has seemed ok since? I was a little worried at first, imagining the cost of a new box etc!

First thing to do is change the oil, get some racing stuff in there and see how it goes.

If it doesn't cure it then it may need a refresh.

But start wth the oil ;)

Got it ordered already, had what I thought was pretty decent oil in there. It seems ok at normal temps and I've heard that hot summer days can cause this I'm hopeing anyway! Are you on your third Transfer box now Andy?!
