Hi guys,
I'm a proud owner of gtv6 2,5 84 model.
Maybe you can help me out with problem i'm facing with my gearbox.
1st gear will engage but with much force on the stick, 2nd gear doesn't engage at all, 3rd gear is perfect as well as 5th gear. 4th gear same as 2nd and finally reverse doesn't engage totally. Reverse feels like if i had a extra inch on the stick it will probably engage totally.
The old posts gave me a idea with my problem but i need to confirm before i start looking for a new gearbox.
Please help!!!
Thanks

These types of difficulties are usually related to the shift linkage rather than the gearbox. Before you start looking for a new gearbox, inspect the shift linkage itself. If the splined connection at the clutch isnt tightened down all the way, it affects shifter travel.
