#1: gear linkages Author: troy, Location: llanelliPosted: Fri Jul 06, 2012 11:57 am ---- hey. changing my clutch on my 2.0 hdi as it started slipping yesterday. i have 2 questions:
first of all how the f*** do you get the 3 gear linkages off, im a mechanic and have no idea how to get them off without bending/ wrecking them
also do you have to take the gearbox mounting stud out of the box?
cheers

working it at the correct angle followed by a massive yank.
2) I think you just need to undo the stud nut and don't forget to lift the box up to take-up the slack when re-tightening it.

If you're talking about the securing pin, hammer and point in the correct direction. That means hitting on the opposite end to where the 4 grooves can be seen on the side of the pin head.
Then use a brand new pin when re-fitting (they are very cheap genuine).

Fit a new one and use a dab of molybdenum grease, on it only.

Its always worth checking the price on a genuine part from a Peugeot main dealer, plenty of people on here have been shocked to find certain genuine parts are cheaper from the main dealer then going to a motor factor for a non genuine item

+1
and the quality on such items is guaranteed to be excellent.
I think that piece is around 10 GBP IIRC.

I guess mine is super tight then. i have tried to turn with mole grips and hammer the pin out from the correct side. I stopped as i feared i would damage the box internally.
