Gearbox won't select reverse maybe 20% of the time.. problem seems to been a disintegration of the gearbox oil filter. Needs an oil and filter change for the box. My mate who owns a garage is going to do it but I can't get it booked in for a couple of weeks so he advised I drive it as little as possible till it's done.
Plus it needs new front wishbone bushes to stop a nasty knock... blurry speed bumps!!
