Hi everyone!
My girlfriends 98(R) 1.6 A3 had to have a new gearbox fitted just before Christmas, and now the shifting action is very notchy. Puting the car into 2nd (as with all these g'boxes) takes a some effort, and although it feels very nice and tight - I have to say it doesn't feel very nice to use.
I guess as with all new mechanical things it will take some running in, however I am interested to here what everyone thinks on this?
Also we had a new clutch fitted at the same time and the gripping point is now after about 10mm... The complete oposite from my A4 which is right at the top - however with a bitting point so slow it is just as frustrating - if not more. Does anyone know if there is anything that can be done about this, or again will it get better with time!
Cheers everyone!
