Hi, enjoying my recent 2002 S3 but experience would be better with a smoother gearbox.
1st is the main problem where it resists going in 80% of the time when stopped at lights. On flat roads I've opted for pulling away in 2nd as I don't like to force the 1st too much as to make it any worse. All the other gears are fine except a little notchy feeling with the stick slightly wiggly (is this normal for this box?). There is no crunching of gears whatsoever so hoping just needs selecter mechanism looked at. 87000 miles full service history with complete clutch done at 50000 miles. Only had car a few days.
Was thinking of letting garage have a look. Audi or Indie??? Am in dartford, kent area.
Any advice much apprecaited.
Thanks
Steve
