Hi everybody.

Hope you can all bear with me and maybe give me some good advice.
I have a D5 v70 which I bought about 3 years ago, in really nice condition and only done 120k.
The gearbox has been ok mostly all the time Ive had it but late summer it sort of started to play up a bit, clunking into 3rd on the way up but ok when coming down, but recently its started flaring and on a few occasions has missed a gear completely hitting the red line before engaging with a mighty clunk, I suspect valve block but not sure.
So I would like to keep it because its a lovely car and beautifully made, so how much would it cost to have it stripped and repaired, who would you recommend or do I get rid as its uneconomical to repair.
Sorry this is a long winded ramble but really nneed some good advice.

Many thanks

Alan
