Thanks for reply do you have any idea of cost to sort Regards Jack

 

[chatteris]

what the cost of a a reconditioned box is plus about the same labour cost as the clutch change, so a fair bit

HI it had a recon box 3 years ago the chap that just did the clutch said gear oil like new no signs of metal in it on magnet.He did say the thrust bearing was a nightmare to get of Many thanks for your reply

I don't know if it's the same as the Renault Traffic used to be but there was often a bearing that was forgotten about that the gearbox shaft that goes through the clutch and pokes into the bearing located in the flywheel. It was easy to remove if you had a rawbolt fixind weld on the end of a slide hammer.

That (spigot) bearing only makes a noise in gear, car stationary, and clutch disengaged.

Its just typical Ducato poor build quality, don't worry about it.
