#1: Gearchange erractic at high revs Author: karimali831, Location: EnglandPosted: Sun Sep 08, 2013 5:19 am ---- Gearstick won't shift at 6k revs or has very high tension, it has to drop to 5k before it can shift in normally giving it a very slow gear change. Any suggestions what this can be? Thanks.

Thrashed to death by the sounds of it

Other than that can't add to those above.
#6: Re: Gearchange erractic at high revs Author: karimali831, Location: EnglandPosted: Mon Sep 09, 2013 5:03 pm ---- I don't thrash it to death, it is well looked after. I suspect mileage is getting high and problems are coming. It is at 107k. Engine oil is topped up, it is topped up every 2 to 3 months because unknown leak some where. Clutch is 18 months new. Other time when it does not shift in gear is in heavy traffic, slowly the clutch travel drops and the clutch gets closer to the ground . I am sure these 2 problems are linked somewhere.. I was told it could be slave cylinder?

Still, sounds like hydraulic system from the way you describe it.
