one problem after another lately.............

**tazdog03** · 13th March 2013, 18:03

Has any one had the problem of not getting first and second gear with the f40 box and used the repair kit from ebay made for the saab box? is it an easy repair and does it fully work?

Any suggestions for this would be fully appreciated as i dont want to buy new box and get same problem months down the line.

i have an f40 box 1.9cdti. ive tried changing the gearbox oil filling to only 2.4, adjusting the cables and greased all the linkages and stem.
ive just read about molyslip grease for gearbox. wondering if this will help. its worse when cold but still does it when warm
