Peugeot 206 changing gear

take the car back because it sounds to me like one of the selector rods has been put on the wrong ball joint have this corrected and should be ok otherwise it is going to cost you in the long run because as you say he dropped it and if there is any internal damage then they should be replacing the box for you as they dropped it not you so take the car back and tell them whats wrong and dont take no excuses from them as there all insured

it is possibly the selector rods have not been alligned propperly i had a similer problem with my renault laguna

thanks for the advice, i have bought another gear box, and this is the one fitted, i cant take it back as it was "the bloke down the road" but i can suggest to the next person to try this out, does the whole gear box need to be taken out just to check the gear selector?

ammended previous question i have had a new clutch and gearbox fitted (after the clutch went and the idiot dropped my gearbox, gearbox has been replaced) now i have problems getting the car into first (its hard) and reverse (it crunches most of the time)i have a new slave cylinder, but still no better.... its hydrolic........ all gears ar fine when the car is not running, and 2nd/3rd/4th/5th go into gear lovely when driving....please help if you can!!

there is a new clutch fitted and a second hand gearbox, but the g/b has a guarentee.....
