Vauxhall Vivaro 1.9 vivaro it's started crunching when selecting second gear, not started to look at anything yet, the vans quite new to me, covered 160k miles if that helps

Hi,
I'm having problems selecting second gear, all other gears are ok but, second crunches into gear, the vans quite new to me, so I've not started to look at anything towards repairing or replacing, any advise would be much appreciated

If all other gears are o.k , unlikely to be cables / linkage and possibly internal 2nd gear synchro .

Hi, many thanks for prompt reply, does this mean gearbox replacement then,
Regards Rob

You would have to eliminate the gear cables / linkage firstly and then if internal , means strip down / overhaul or replacement g/box .
