    Gearbox tip.

    cannot recommend enough to change your gearbox oil if you are experiencing any diffculty with selection changes with your gearbox.got mine done at the weekend and it feels so smooth.It sorted out a second to third gear selection problem and an overall notchy feeling gearbox.Feels very good.
    (mount done also)

    My local Renault dealership claim that the TRX fluid they sell has been known to sort all manor of problems out, like whining diff, bad selection of gears.

    It only comes in half litre bottles and i was told id need 7 of em, but only used 6 and its just overflowing?
