Title: transmission gear linkage problem ????
Post by: sohailG40 on June 13, 2010, 10:43:43 PM
hi there i have a funny problem with my gear linkage (the part next to the gear box with the little rubber ball shape )
ok its fine when normal driveing but when i start to spank the g40 and do quick gear changes what happens is the little pin on the slecter rod which goes in to a hole on that ball unit keeps poping out and which is leveing me with no gears

ok i have changed all parts on the gearbox side of the sleter but the problem is still there

it only happens once in a blue moon like its happen 2 in the last 4 months

i was wondering has some one had the same problem if so what can i do to make it better

thanks for your time

Try putting some Blue loctite on there that may help.
