Nevell Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Hi all I have stripped 3 rd gear well it does not exist anymore I drove the car home in all other gears obviously it was noisey but it still drove ok Would it be cheaper to get a second hand gearbox or get a new 3rd gear installed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Had the same problem mate :( 2nd hand gearbox is cheaper but Gears on liverpool with do a trade in for your old box for a refurbished one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Yeah happy to have it back took longer than I'd have liked but got there in the end. But I guess I was still in the blobeye so the time was well spent lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevell Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 It has been a long old week , gearbox went last Sunday and she was fixed last night by 11 , and 1000 squid later , few I'm tired some late nights on the drive ,I'm gonna congratulate myself for being a drive way hero lol , forgot what it was like to do some proper work on a car lol , well 50 miles in and she is driving so nice and smooth , the light weight flywheel really helps make everything so much smoother , she revs and seems to pic up speed a lot quicker with a lot less throttle , so I'm back in action :-) , but taking it easy lol But I would also like to thank the subaru gods for making it as easy as could be m:-) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
