sounds like the synchro`s on 3rd are def fooked.could be a multitude of things for 1st and 2nd.

a strip and rebuild is in your future me thinks :shock: :cry:

Grinding into 3rd sounds like a worn baulk ring...

Labour to remove the gearbox and take it apart and putting it back is about £320... Just add cost of parts needed on top of that...

also it depends when its grinding, and what you mean by every time..... before I'd got used to my R I was changing down to third from 5th (which the synchro doesn't like)..... also if your changing from 4th to third at higher speeds (e.g to accelerate quickly) then you need to blip the throttle before you out it in gear and it should just slide in.

If its crunching going up through the gears then I'd guess its one of the problems above.

I think the gearbox has totally gone now, it goes in gear but it wont pull off in any gear except 3rd.. It also wont come out of gear so it always stalls..
