'10 Clio200
I'm a bit lost here and I suspect of the gearbox. Maybe you can help me:
Quite often is very hard to get into gears (specially when warm). It happens just with 3rd and 4th and only downshifting. Heel-and-toe solves the problem, but it should work lovely as it's a genuine Renault exchange gearbox (or shouldn't it?). It feels like a hard point and if you push further (and harder) it will eventually engage the gear without any crunch, but feeling rough. Hit the throttle for some rev matching and it will automatically pop in.
Clutch is new as well: Luk.
The old gearbox had a really smooth actuation (and crunching LOL: I bought the car with less than 1L of oil in it) but the new one felt stiffer since the very beginning. I've changed so far the top mount and the gearbox mount with no improvement. Also changed the lever ball mechanism for that one from Renault sport made of nylon.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
