[V70 Graham]

Well just been to local indie, it's the cable, comes as a complete unit, not gonna have one in till next week as it has to come from Sweden.....at almost £110.00

At least it's not a gearbox mate. So in some ways - good news. Is the car driveable or have you gotta use the ***cough** VW **cough***?

True, gearbox didn't bear thinking about lol.....took it to North Weald yesterday, just gotta be a little careful with the changes thats all, back to work tomorrow for 9 days so the scooter will earn its crust, booked in next Wed.

Thanks for taking time to have a look Steve, I love you too lol, but 'The Flying Brick' has first dibbs on ya

He did say they could 'try' and push it back but it would probably only just pop out again before I got home.

This hapend to my 850 t5. I changed the inserts in the linkage that are rubber or nylon cant remember for a bearing. They sell the kit on ebay for around £12 its just 2 bearings along with a mixture of washers it sorted mine out just a suggestion for you.

Thanks but I think the cable has streched as well, also the crimping has come undone, I don't think these would fully solve the problem but thanks anyway.

Right, all sorted, new cable fitted and changing gear like er a manual should lol.....still can't believe the price of it tho, oh well.
