    Default geabox feels " notchy"

    right as this is my first ever VX it may just be a trait of the car but the gear change feels a bit notchy to me. would anyone else agree or should i maybe pop down to the dealership for them to get a lookie see. car has under 7k on her so it should deffo not be a problem hence im thinking it may just be how they are. guess im just after peace of mind guys.

    cheers
    Jeff

    cool i was thinking /hoping that was the case since it was a demo car and was used for a bit any problems would have been noticed my now and sorted out.
    good to know its just a trait of the car.... albeit not a great one has anyone tried getting it ironed out of their car? diffrerent gear oils etc?
