Since ive had the fiesta 2009 plate the gear change has been stiff, its only got 12000 miles on the clock, i thought it me being stupid but after reading a thread about the same problem on the previous model fiesta, i have the same symptoms especially when the engine gets warm it can have a little resistance slotting into gear, third at times can grind trying to change into it, mechanically minded folk on the thread stated the gear change lever on the engine needs replacing im wondering if this is right and does anybody else have this problem.

Cheers

I remember there being an issue with the selector bar being slightly bent. As it warms up and expands it makes the problem worse. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to fix it.

Is your car still under warranty?

Yes it is the car was registered 30/12/09, perhaps just the arm needs changing, ford only seem to have a 1 year warranty in the service book, I take it fords warranty for two years after is limited.

I would have thought as long as it is not a clutch issue it would be covered under the 3 year warrantee.
