n16 dco gear change

Any one have any advice please ! :) for a while my 2004 dci has had a horrible notchcy gear change recent clutch an hearbox oil change made no real difference so thought i mighy need a new gearbox. Sometime's changes up an down nicley then sometime's it's notchy an wont change smoothly i had a look seam's like play on the top of the selector fork's where the gearchange cable's attach at the r clip's . How much play should be there and if so can just the selector fork's be changed ? It's odd as it's intermitant and not just one certain gear!
 
There is normally play at the gearbox end where the cable attach. You could try buying some 2JR selector bushings. Can't guarantee it'll fix your problem but if it is the play, then this should sort it - http://www.2j-racing.com/bushings/b15-shifter-bushings.html

Try cheaper bit's first i guess teally can't afford a gear box at the moment :/ with the cable's disconected from there seem's a fair bit of movement in all the linkage the cable's join onto is that normal too there?

Great info there Ed which year would you go for as apparently there is a difference from 2003-2004 so how do you know which is best to go for?

In all honesty, I don't know. The B15 obviously has some differences between years that we do not. Best way would be to take pics of the DCi's and send to 2JR for them to recommend the right one.
 
As much as i like the car o justcwant to find the problem especialy if i put a new box in and it's the same.....wouldn't be happy! I nearly got a civic to replace it glad i didn't :)
 
Well worth getting the bushes as I have yet to find a location where changing to polys has made things worse may be worth a group buy on these once it's known they are correct fitment?
