my daily hack is a 1.9D felicia pick up which I love I have no idea why, its just a nice little truck, it used to be a cube van but is now a pick up!!

 

Only problem was the gearbox whined like mad!!! doesn't any more as it wouldn't stay in gear so is now on the floor of the barn.

But I have no idea how to remove the gear linkage rod that goes from the box the bottom of the gearstick from the gearbox???? there looks like there is a bit of pipe like a locating pin do bash this out to release it?

 

once i work out how to upload photos i will

You have to take out pin 7 (see photo) with a pin punch. If you rebuild your gearbox, Briskoda community would be interested to see photos made step by step or even better a video. Keep us posted..

 

Fantastic thank you!! do you know if the pin needs to go up or down to be released?

I got a replacement box to fit, the oil that came out of my old box looked like molten metal it was a nice shiny silver colour!!

 

AHH HAA here is my Beast!!

 

Well... it's upwards for both removal and installation, given the fact that normally when you're under the car you only have access from below. But I don't think it counts anyway, the hole is cylindrical, not conical.

 

Just for the fun of it I would open the old gearbox and see what lurks inside. At least on 5th gear area.
