Gearbox Troubles...

[tridau]

Hello all,

I was a member of this club way back in 2001-2002 when my first car was a k10. Renault 5 GTT alloys, 3 spoke steering wheel, spoiler, K&N filter, central locking, alarm, colour coded everything! Those were the days....

More recently, my girlfriend bought a k10 and the happy memories came flooding back.

Sadly now the gearbox has got major problems. No 3rd or 4th gears, and 2nd on its way out.

How easy is it to swap the gearbox? Haynes seems to think it is fairly straight forward but I have learned to take their advice with a pinch of salt over the years. Will a k11 gearbox fit? Or was it redesigned?

Cheers all,

This happened to mine. The hub inside the box needs replacing, which cost me £150+vat from Hardy. http://www.hardyengineering.co.uk/. They may sell complete refurbished boxes too.

hi tridau, a 1.0 k11 g/box would be my choice (they,re stronger)
