🚙 Kia Sportage - Gearbox crunching while selecting gears. 🚗
💥 Quite a common fault in these gearbox, the original synchromeshs in the box aren't up to the job and the teeth sheer off or wear down on them. This causes the gears to bang together and crunch into place rather than slotting in seamlessly and this causes the crunching noise you hear! 💥
🚙 Its off for repairs today, hopefully get it back monday and have it in and sorted early next week! 👨🔧
