1st gear

Recommended Posts

Not a problem as such, but might be early symptoms of one??

 

When I'm in 1st gear, at low speeds, I've noticed that the gear stick moves back and forth by about 15mm. more noticeable when I've got my hand on the stick :wink:

 

The car drives fine, and it only seems to happen in 1st. Any clues?? :?

Maybe just early signs of wear in the gear change stick bushes but it probably is not a good idea to drive along with your hand on the stick (not put any force on it anyway)

the engine mounts are nothing to do with the mot....15mm isnt a huge amount, just consider getting the mounts done when you can

Yeah thats not what I meant :)

Just that its yearly service is every september, which happens to be the same time as the MOT. So I'd rather wait til then if possible to get my mechanic to sort it all out :wink:

 

I've got no idea how to change an engine mount :roll: Maybe it's time I learnt!
