ZX Gearbox noise

Post by Thompatruck »

The gearbox on my '93 ZX is making a noise, basically at high revs there's a wierd noise, like a cog that's only just catching or sort of a loose vibration type noise, as I say only at high revs and is cured (well the noise stops[;)])by simply putting the lightest pressure on either side of the gearstick????
Any ideas????

When you say 'high revs' do you mean when the car is stationary and in neutral at high revs or when you are driving? If it is in neutral it is quite possibly noise from the gear train which is nothing to worry about. Some boxes do this at low revs too. There will be some slackness developed over 11 years after all.
