I got it towed in the end.
He thought I'd have got away with it on the space saver if I took it very easy , but you never know and could have risked the whole thing dropping and all sorts of issu ... |

I've never used the space saver spare before.

The car doesn't look or feel odd, but I've been crawling along since incase the wheel falls off!

this morning there was a bit of a crunch as I went over a speed bump. I thought it sounded like the car bottoming out but I was going very slowly.
Shortly after a grinding sound developed which has ... |

Hmmm not sure then, like I said I'm no mechanic....
I never tried my tests prior to the problem, so I guess that could be a false reading and maybe that was always the case, but something has defin ... |

I'm Oxfordshire way so that is a bit of a trek.
Someone suggested £400 if I need the gear box stripping / a reconditioned one.
Would be nice if it was just oil, but given the reverse bearings sou ... |

I will have to take it to a garage as I'm not in a position to do it myself.
How likely is it the oil given that it only seems to affect first?
Another possibly unrelated symptom is that when ... |

My gear box sometimes feels a bit "sticky" when trying to get in to first.
It seems better when stationary or at lower speed, but that could be circumstantial.
At first I thought I had got slopp ... |
