Squeking sound when changing gear

Feb 27, 2007 3 Replies

Hi NG, I have a 306 2.0 HDI from year 2000. I happy about the fantastic car but during the past couple of months a squeking sound is anoying me a bit. I happens when I change gear from 2. or 4. gear. The sound seems to come from just below the gear lever.



Anyone any idea what causing the sound? I recon it could be some fitting/sleeve when translating the gear level movement from vertical to horizontal underneath the bottom of the car.

Can you spray down the shaft? if so it might be a nylon bush drying up.or a rubber bush, try and have a look under the shaft cover and spray wd40 round it all..

HI I had the same squeek as you ,but in a 2ltr 406and the problem was the sealing ring on the exhaust manufold that holds the front pipe air tight,it had been assembled dry,it should have been assembled using a bit of high melting piont grease,when i did this it cured my problem squeek,i hope this helps somebody

Thanx for your help, I think I can live with the sound another month and have a look at it when the weather get a bit warmer. We have had a snow storm her in DK a week ago...
