Corsa 1.0 getting knocked out of gear

Jun 30, 2006 4 Replies

Hi All,



If I treat the local speed bumps with contempt and go over them at about 20, the Corsa often jumps out of gear.



Also I have noticed that when driving on a slightly bumpy road the gear lever moves back and forth a lot.



Is this normal behaviour for this make/model, or does it indicate something is broken or coming unscrewed?



Check the engine mounts. One or more might need replacing. Mike.

these suffer from a dodgy gear linkage, there is a modified better made lump to replace it, from Vauxhall about 40 quid.

No wonder. Have you seen the horribly unnecessary complexity of it??

yep and changed a few, massive improvement after though. the ball joints are the wrong way on the original
