Fiesta mk6 crunching in second gear everytime
Hey guys, just bought a 03 fiesta as a project, sold with crunching second gear.
Any ideas if this is syncro/box related?
I can get a new box for £60 so I was going to drop one in but not sure if it could be anything else?

Sounds like a new gearbox and protect it with Shockproof oil from OPIE oils.

Mine does it a bit when going into first while moving and also into second in winter before the gearbox has warmed up. Probably a worn synchro on second - have you tried rev matching or double de-clutching to see if that reduces the crunching? ...might help the box last a bit longer too
