Hi all,
Has anyone experienced this before:
When cold my clutch/gearbox works fine. As the car warms up it gets
harder to select gears until after 20 mins of driving it is nearly
impossible to change gears without a crunch. I suspect my clutch
hydraulics need rebuilding, but I don't understand the cold/hot thing.
The car was off the road for about six months while I removed the
gearbox and put in a new clutch plate, pressure plate, throwout bearing,
etc. The hydraulics worked well before this, but the system was left
disconnected for the time the car was off the road.
The car is a Series 3 with stock gearbox and overdrive. I did put in a
roller throwout bearing, which appears to be working well. The gearbox
runs 30wt engine oil.
Cheers,
Paul.
