#1: Won't go into 4th or reverse Author: austin316, Location: crawleyPosted: Mon Jul 11, 2011 4:36 am ---- Hi guys. I was driving yesterday. All going well then i came to a roundabout. Pulled off normally and went to go into 2nd gear and it grinder like I didn't have the clutch down. Turned car off then on again and 2nd gear now works, but the gear stick now won't go into 4th and reverse? Not too sure what problem is tho. Any ideas? Thanks

#4: Re: Won't go into 4th or reverse Author: austin316, Location: crawleyPosted: Mon Jul 11, 2011 4:41 am ---- No quickshift fitted and I'm not all that good with cars. Where am I looking for gear linkages, and what am I looking for? Thanks

If you take it to a garage, you'll never learn stuff about cars.

I have one but I think they are crap imo. My Dad thinks that too, he says there is not enough detail, however he is like James May. I prefer to muddle though
