Galaxy 1.9 Pd Tdi 2001 Gearbox Problems

[roy202]

Hi all, Ive got a prob with the gearbox, problem being when moving up the box from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd it crunches and grinds when cold, its not so bad when its hot but still does it slightly, the box has the right oil and the right level in it, it has a new clutch, dual mass and slave cylinder in it, i dont know if it did this before as i bought it with dead engine, does anybody have any ideas what this could be?

going down through the gears is fine ?

and do you think thinner gearbox oil might help the situation?

appreciate any help......

ok thanks for reading anyway, just to let you know ive had a chat with a chap that repairs gearboxs and he says that these boxs run better with dexron 3 (atf) ive changed the fluid now and although it still crunches slightly its no where as bad as it was, so i guess it was the right move to make......
