mikej Posted March 17, 2012 Report Posted March 17, 2012 Can anyone provide a diagram or link to a picture showing the bolt that frequently comes loose on the 5 speed manual box, the one fitted to the 2.3 petrol. This bolt apparently creates selection difficulties and then total loss of gear selection once it drops out and results in having to remove the box i beleive, anyhow i have a spare box on the bench and was looking for the said bolt but can't find the bloody thing so any hints to it's location would be great?cheersMike.

BigRik13 Posted March 21, 2012 Report Posted March 21, 2012 Chuckle. I suffered the broken bolt last month, so it's all fresh in my mind! Will have forgotten it all by next week though! Quote
