Mine went inexactly the same way. Put a second hand one in and it went in the same way again!!!
Got a new one now!
arn't they 600 squid new :( ?
is it worth getting a willy box on there or not really??
I think all MK1 owners should write to Reno, they still supply them and on standard engines they are not up to the job, I'm thinking trading standards, as a gearbox should last the life of the car imo. Most other manufacturers are able to achieve this, why not Reno? afterall, they can make an engine withstand constant abuse...
if....sorry when.....my box goes am onboard for that!! :P
well you lot will have to sort it, my box is okay and will be having an easy life up until I sell her!
