I have a 74 1.8 and I'm having some trouble with 1st gear. About half of the time it will grind shifting into 1st. I know this is bad for the gears and it's also very embarassing. It seems to help the longer you are stopped, but not always. Does this mean the Synchro band is shot? Are there any easy adjustments I can check first? Just bought the car and know nothing about 914's.
Thanks, Phil |

I'll try those tips. So this is a normal problem that most people just live with instead of fixing or it can't be fixed?
