HighHo Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Car: 2008 mk 2.5 estate petrol estate. Hi all, in the last couple of days when changing gears to 3rd gear (both up and down), it feels loose (not as much resistance might be better wording). The gear changes fine, and no odd revs etc when coming off the clutch. Is it anything I should be concerned about, or parts I should inspect. I'm more concerned if it's a symptom of a future larger failure. Cheers for reading, and any advice, Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F0CUE Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 It could be the clutch starting to slowly break down like mines. The first port of call is to check for any leaks in the selector shaft it's in a black box in the passenger side under the engine you can't miss it. If it's leaking you will see it all coming out the box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighHo Posted November 12, 2019 Author Share Posted November 12, 2019 A garage has taken a look and insisted it's all fine and moving as it should be (described as perfect). I'm not 100% convinced still so will try and have a proper look myself when possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
