Clio 172 5th gear fork



  Clio 172
Hello guys, I just opened up my clio 172 gearbox and the 5th gear fork is grinded up. The car also sometimes went in to neutural on highway so I guess this is the culprit.
I went to my local renault dealer and its impossible to order the fork brand new. Any idea where I could get a new fork? Maybe it fits from other renault models, non RS?
I live in Latvia and there are no real junkyard options.

Any non RS will have the fork, but looking at that you need the synchro ring, synchro hub and 5th gear. That’s completely fucked.
why would the 5th gear itself need to be replaced? are the teeth grinded too much? I have no previous experience with gearboxes, but I have with full engine rebuilds. The synchro hub has silicone on it, thats why it looks messed up.

Yeah the teeth look like they’ve seen better days on the synchro cone on the gear itself and the synchro ring.
Ah ok fair enough.
