i have the stiff gear problems, hence missing 3rd at PV show, still getting 15.1. the more you rag it around in a nite the more you struggle.

nothing to with the gearbox it because the gearbox of the C20XE are Mechanical transponders and the alot of corsas can only read electrical transponders

(the small plug that sits on the top of the box with the wire coming out :D)

dunno if you could do anything similar but with mk2 golfs you can added a weighted shift rod (has a lump of lead on it) and this help increase inertia making gear selection alot smoother

might be something to look into.....

adam not bein able to put ure selector into first gear unless at a standstill is actually common with most boxes. stops u from accidently selecting first and smashing the lot...... :P
