Gearbox rebuilders in Sheffield

Hi,

New to all this Polo stuff. So hi. Oh and cool forum too

Got my GT last week and it's got a problem with 4th gear. When I put it in 4th it knocks slightly when I lift or put down the throttle as if 4th gear is a bit "loose". Think it's cos the old dear who had it from new never used 5th so thats why 4th's worn. It's done 58k so I'm a bit gutted it's shot, but hey the rest of the car's mint so I'm happy.

Now I know it's not the sync, as I would struggle getting it in gear, but I'm thinking it maybe the pin thingy that keeps it in gear?

Anywho, can anyone reccomend a good gearbox specialist in the Sheffield area? I think I'm just gonna whip it out at the weekend and have it rebuilt.

Cheers dudes.

Hi

One of the best known gearbox rebuilders for polo's, especially G40's is JP Race at silverstone. I know it's not it sheffield, but I know they only specialise in gearboxes and they have done loads of polo's.
