The 6 speed TT manual

Hi all, just wondering, for all those who have got 6 speed manual TT's that is, does anyone find the 6 speed box clunky and sometimes hard to get in gear because i do.

My supe does have a triple plate clutch in her though if that matters at all to the way the gearbox responds to the clutch but does anyone else find this??

Yep. Might be worth having the gearbox fluid changed but the 6speed is a little agricultural. On the upside, it takes an awful lot of power ;)

 

I concur. When I changed the fluid in the old blue car it transformed the gearbox operation. :)

Yes as Matt says both my 6 speeds are clunky, especially when cold, but they take a lot of power and have a very good reputation for lasting, it is normal and nothing to worry about, a fluid change would help

 

Ok thanks guys, yeh because as i said first is always clunky i find-even in my n/a it was. But sometimes when im driving her, she didnt want to go into gear and it ended in a CRUNCH so i guess ive got to be more patient because my n/a used to feel silky smooth in gear changes compared to the supe im driving now. Having said that, she has been sitting around a while waiting to be sold so that probably didnt help matters...:)

You said clunky in the first post, then a crunch in the last, My gearboxes do not crunch into gear, that maybe worth an inspection as the clutch my not be engaging as it should ??

 

No i dont think that its not engaging i just think that maybe im too impatient when i change and it sometimes ends in a crunch. For example, when you change but take your foot off the clutch pedal too early when you're changing gear, it crunches. But mine only seems to crunch when it goes into third though....

It's probably just you being a bit soon to release the clutch. Drop by if you want me to take a quick look at it, I've driven tons of 6 speeds so know how they should feel :)

 

Yeh if i could that would be great! When you're not busy, just give me a ring or a pm. Cheers homer :D

I'll pm you my number...:D
