hi all,
I've been searching this site for a while and am finally making my first post. Any help would be much appreciated.
I have an old V reg 1.8 freelander I bought to have some fun over the fields with the kids. It's got the typically common problem of extremely stiff gear selection but only when it gets hot.
I've put a new clutch in it, new master and slave, took prop off to see if any difference, new gearbox oil (mtf 94) and new ird oil 75/90 but still no better.
The slave bracket looks ok, but replaced anyway. It flex's a tiny bit so I've tried a 5mm packer in the release arm, no improvement. The release arm was free and easy to move when I took the box off.
Basically, the clutch pedal feels nice and it pulls away great, it's just getting the thing into gear once it's warmed up is impossible. I honestly don't know what else to try. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
