Continuing my run of bad luck, I think my clucth / synchros have decided they've had enough
On track there has often been a slight crunch if trying to change into 4th too quickly. But yesterday on the gentle drive home from work the gearbox was feeling unusually stiff, and it got worse and worse until the gears were pretty much refusing to go in. Once in gear though it still drives fine. I managed to nurse the car home though.
I've not noticed any clutch slip, or any clucth smell. The clutch was changed about 50k miles ago (they are only good for that sort of mileage apparently?)
Any thoughts? If it is the clucth, should I be replacing the flywheel at the same time? How much am I looking at for that?
Cheers
Martin
