some other members have have gear box replacements

i thought it may be some problem with the gearbox as the noise is worse in 3rd gear, and is quite difficult to get into 3rd sometimes.

its completely normal for the type of engine.....would rather have that than poor economy

I have the noise and quite bad economy - i get 300 miles on a tank if im lucky compared to my mums 40/450 miles in her MCS!
