C4 Grand Picasso gear issue

Hi, changed the clutch recently on our c4 1.6 hdi and its now tearing going into 3rd and 4th gear.
just wondering if there is any adjustment or are we looking at a gearbox issue ?

Sounds like synchro issue.

Did you change clutch yourself or have a mechanic do it?
If a mechanic changed it then I suggest you bring it back.

mechanic changed it but he reckons its the gearbox . Spoke to someone and they reckon cos its only 3rd and 4th and if I work the gearstick right (slide into neutral then slightly right) it doesnt noise that it isnt the gearbox

What it could possibly be, you need to check car with a gearbox pro

Hi, Just wondering if anyone knows are all the PSA 1.6 hdi gearboxes the same or is the grand picasso specific to that model ? ?

1 question, did you replaced only the clutch or entire clutch kit?

jimbooth · 05-02-2019 4:57pm

the entire kit including fork and bearing

anyone know if other 1.6 diesel PSA gearboxes fit or just Grand Picasso ?
