Hey guys; has anyone successfully replaced or adjusted their selector rods?
Iââ,¬â,,¢m having the 1st/reverse problems which are getting a little bit worse since the clutch/dmf change, so I can only assume that the selectors werenââ,¬â,,¢t correctly wired/put back in?

Just for a list of symptoms:

Gets stuck in reverse.
Is stiff to get into first, but selecting second the first stops the problem.

Engine off job and itââ,¬â,,¢s all fine! It releases, etc.
Sometimes the clutch is a tad sticky in coming up, but itââ,¬â,,¢s generally okay.


Iââ,¬â,,¢m going to give it a bleed, maybe a box fluid change, but if itââ,¬â,,¢s anything like a new box, Iââ,¬â,,¢m going to be sick.

Never actually done it myself but Here is a you tube explaining how it's done.

As you have had DMF I would certainly give clutch a bleed and also some fresh box oil might help aswell.
