Thats it too late now , car in for new gear box , clutch again and the plugs and bolts recall , so now we shall see what happens afterwards ?

Box was just a bit notchy between 1-2-3 and sometimes baulky into first , but Honda said change it , with no argument

What will the result be like though , will the dealer sod it up , only time will tell I suppose

Watch this space !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Good luck with that Bob, hope the S comes back better than ever

 

Clutch/gearbox changes simply transformed my car. It now drives better than it ever has done. Have no fear.

 

This is an interesting post.
My gearbox has a definite knotch into third unless I am driving moderately and have revs exactly right.
Having had clutch modification (and flywheel skimmed) during first month I was advised by dealer gearbox could be changed (under warranty) but that in fact mine was one of the better boxes and best left alone.
Opinions?

Thanks

Don

 

I had my gearbox and clutch changed a month or so ago and while it is much better than the original I still get the occassional notchy gearchange going into 2nd and 3rd

 

My gearbox is still a litle notchy but only for the first few minutes when driven from cold.

 

normal.

talk to biker1 or bmarshall. I`m sure they`ve both replaced transmission oil and this is improved.

 

I'm also on my second gearbox. First was replaced @ 9,000 miles. The second was better from the start. But now (~22,500 Miles), it's even better. There's a thread about the gearbox oil I've changed to somewhere around.

Work done , box much better , bit stifff but loostening all the time , advised to take it easy for a while .

Clutch replaced again as well as the new 055 one had not bedded and was running on high spots , dealer ordered one in case as Honda do not apparently do not fit new automatically on box change .

Oil jets done and plugs , dealer ok no problems
