I'd consider using pins, mine slipped by a tiny amount and I lost 2nd and reverse, its a very fine line between getting it right and wrong. | |

Its not hard to adjust the linkage, as easy as CorsaDave said, try and do it with someone in the car to check it, its a pain doing it on ur own! | |

quote: yeah where the linkage pivots, theres a few bushes and seals, you can replace them all, from vaux, cost me about 12 quid and sorted the problem:) | |

Its a doddle to set up, you just need two pins (drills, allen keys etc), one goes in the selector on the box (you might need to take the battery off) and one goes in the lever itself, there is a hole on the passenger side of the lever that lines up with one in the base. | |

Have you put a 2.0 in? I had the same problem with mine, when I tried to put it in 2nd and 4th the gear linkage catched on the steering rack, so I had to bend the top of the linkage back so I could engage the gears. get someone to try engaging all the gears while your underneath watching the linkage move, to check if its hitting anything. | |
