Is there anything I can do?

Had it fitted with the new engine, its a williams box which had apparently been rebuilt.

When going up through the gears... second and third it crunches quite badly if pushing it. Same when dropping in to second.

I prosume it is the synchromesh?

What are my options

:(

Is it a new clutch too? Do you get difficulty selecting first and reverse?

If so then it could just be the clutch needs to 'learn' as I believe it's self adjusting.

Mine certainly fixed itself after a couple of weeks sticking it in first then starting up with the clutch in, that and selecting 2nd then first when changing down lol

have you got the right oil in it?
should be Ep 75-80/90
If you have ep 80-90 in it then you will experience crunching problems.
