Just visited the dealer as a bit of my city pack was about to come free
, also wanted to book it in for the handbrake recall...
So...I decided to mention 3rd gear as well.
They admited that there may be a problem and agreed to look at it for 'diagnosis'. They said it was the 3rd gear synchro at fault.
They are going to pre-order the parts for the 3rd gear issue. So hopefully they will agree that it's at fault and fix it.
Top marks so far.
p.s. dealer is Avonvale Solihull.
