My Nov'98 ('99 model) '93, 44Kmiles and FSH, has just gone to the garage with gearbox problems - Left hand drive shaft inner end support bearing had a good 1/4" (6mm) up/ down / side / side play Symptoms were getting quite noisy / harsh - initially I thought it was the N/S wheel bearing - only when car was on jack did I discover the gearbox play - particularly when spinning the wheel I noticed a lot of slack and play in the gears - occasionally I and my wife have had jumping out of second on overrun. Anyone else had the same? Should I push for a new Gearbox TIA Jeff
