Possible Problem?

[hex]

I've had my fiesta mk6 1.4 flame since May and it's been great so far, minus the diversion through a fence into a field.

But over the past 2 days, When I pull up to a junction, I dip the clutch to take it out of second and it won't come out, so I let go of the gear stick and try again and it always works.

It's not happening alot, happened once today and twice yesterday.

Im not sure as to what this could be so anyone got any ideas?

Thanks.

sounds to me like you have knocked the gear linkage. might be worth taking it to a garage and explaining and let them have a quick look and adjust if need be.

mmm, I agree, either that or the clutch isn't quite engaging enough...but if you don't need to bring clutch up then down again to take it out of second...then linkage is a more likely suspect!!

Well the clutch is fine in all other gears?

I spoke to a mate and he said it's probably the gear linkage too.

Anyone know where I can get a gear linkage?

May just need adjusting...there is full adjustment on them...or should be :)

Where can I find out how to adjust it properly?

Sorry for being such a n00b lol.

I just have no idea where to start with a car.
