Morning all, as above 5th gear on my gearbox is crunching into fifth gear from fourth. what could this be? And is it worth repairing? The gear oil looks clean.

wats your profile pic all i found was james feenan but says uk on it mine is gerard murray profile pic blue type r
It hopefully shouldn't be major fix, 5th gear may have moved. This can be fixed without removing the box from the car. You need to take the back section off the box, and tighten the nut that holds fifth gear in place. It seems to be common enough problem in the type r boxes, but needs to be sorted asap before it casues more damage
well man try naas gearbox as they are close to ya and are good i had them do a box for me before with no problems,or as said before ali burrows does a top class job,ring round a few places and see which gives the best deal
Its worth thinking about a six speed, its a good time to change when box fecked. I put uk six speed in mine stronger and nicer to drive. and easier to get good one. All five speeds 11 years +

I like the sound of this.
How can I tell if 5 gear was changed for the motorway ?
How much for a 6 speed gearbox ?
