Ford Fiesta Mk6 Gear Box

[Lee Oyston]

Hi I have a 08 fiesta zetec mk6

The problem I have is the gear box when the car is running it is really hard to get it into gear 4 and 5 are just as usual to put into gear, once it is in gear it is just as normal it doesn't just jump out, when the car isn't running it is going into gear fine, I had my clutch done in my car approx 2 months ago don't know if this can change anything but can anyone help me thanks

Sounds like the clutch is dragging.

This is normally due to having the wrong oil in the gearbox if your clutch has been done recently the oil will of come out of the box trough the drive shafts holes as they have to be removed to do the clutch

Drain the oil from you gearbox not easy as there's no drain plug then refill with fully synthetic 75-90 and it will be fine
