Hi,
Sorry if I shouldn't put this up here, but there's a good spread of knowledge on here and I'm a bit stuck.
Car is a 1994 820 Vitesse. Reverse is making a loud clicking that doesn't occur in any forward gear. Been looking on the web and found it's a PG1 5-speed manual with the earlier type bellhousing (I think).
Anyone know of a direct replacement PG1 'box from another model as I'm having trouble getting a Vitesse one in N.Ireland. Ratios aren't too much of a concern as long as close to original, but apparantly some of them have different bearings and seals where the driveshafts fit?
He can't really afford to have the car off the road for long.
