hi

i just got a quickshift for my s2, i noticed that the original ford assembly had 2 big rubber bits on the part which bolts to the floor pan, i take it this is to stop it rattling and vibrating, my quickshift is just a block of ally with 4 fixing bolts, it rattels a bit on start up and also when the clutch is at biting point, it shifts perfect, just this rattle is really annoying

 

Stupid question...is it done up tight enough? It sounds like you have a b&m one and if this is the case I've sold loads of them and never had a problem.

 

its a b&m one, its as tight as i can get it but it creaks when the clutch is at biting point, might make a gasket out of rubber and try that

cheers sm

anyone else had this problem?

 

right, ive made a gasket and now it dosent rattle or vibrate but when i come off the throttle (whilst in gear) it seems noisier than my old one

any help appricated, cheers sm

 

mate I am baffled I'll have a word with a few other people and I'll get back to you.

 

cheers, its a 2nd hand one, was bought 6 months ago and was only used for 1 month, the bloke also said the linkage was 6 months old too, anyone got some fitting intstructions they could send or email me? and ill fit it to my original linkage and see if its any better

cheers sm

 

I'll get you some instructions for Monday if you want.

 

mate i got a burton one with the complete linkage etc

looks like a straight fit to me but good luck

 

cossymad, cheers for that, ill look on the web aswell, someone must of fitted one before and posted how to do it

just noticed that if u drive along and dip the clutch whilst in gear the noise isnt as loud as it is when ur cruising along with the clutch up, if u take it out of gear u get no noise

cheers sm
