Hey guys been having trouble getting my mini into gear. it is fine going into gear with the engine off but if the engine is running then it just wont go in. Sometimes it will go into fourth but only just. i got a bad feeling the gearbox has gone? any ides?  |

just spoke to a friend who runs a garage and he said it might have something to do with the clutch.

well getting to the clutch itself and the master cylinder is easier than tearing apart the gearbox so have a look at those first  |

Got a similar problem at the moment (among others lol) I'm getting the clutch bled, as the pedal feels spongy and springy and the bite is right down the bottom of the pedal.
