207 gear change difficult

Unread post by Ady2021 »

Hi all

My wife is now complaining that the gear change feels too difficult on her 207. It is not happening all the time, probably every other gear change or so. I am tempted to think that it is just a problem with the gear change mechanism but they are non-adjustable cables. Does anyone know if it a common problem for the cables to stretch or is there some other common problem with these gearboxes?

It is a 207 1.4 8V 2008.

Thanks

Sound like new gear linkages are needed , change in the weather and this happens.
