Hi !!! RobF300, RockyF70 and DREWE (to whom I'm addressing this message) and thanks a lot for your answers. I had to make an in-depth study of the technical terms. Moreover, I don't know anything abourt cars, but your aswers sound extremely clear. Hope the mechanic will be able to see things as you ...

differential unit

Hi to everybody!
One more problem with my Feroza: I started hearing a clanking sound coming probably from the back differential unit when I stop pushing on the accelerator and when I push on it again while running.
What do you think it might be happening? Is it serious?
Thanks. Bye!

Hi!
This is really GREAT news (that it's just that the synchros get a little misaligned). And it seems to me to be what happened, apart from the trembing noise I was telling about in previous messages, which continues to make itself heard.
Thank you for defining my English great. Bye!

Hi! NO, I did not misunderstand, but sorry, my English is not so good and I was in a hurry. I meant: hope mine WILL NOT let go, just as yours DID NOT let go. Thank you for your advice about the oil. Just fear I won'yt be able to find it in Italy. Anyway, let's hope it won't let go... BYE[/quote ...

Hi again- I think you misunderstood me! My gearbox is still running fine. I was told by my mechanic it is just worn due to the previous owner not getting the gearbox oil changed when required. I now run Redline Shockproof Lightweight Gearbox oil in it- this has made it a lot better. I experimented ...

What sort of noise is the gearbox making and when? Mine makes a bit of noise in second and third gear at high revs- but it's been doing that for over two years and hasn't "let go" yet. I found changing the oil to a higher quality has made it a lot better for noise and shifting in cold weather. It's ...

You don't state whether your's is going out or not so I assume that it is. I don't think that there are any others that will work. A custom bell housing could be made or a spacer custom made betweeing the engine block and the bell housing of a different transmission. You couldn't use your transfer ...

gearbox

HELLO!
Is there anybody who can tell me which brands of gearbox (other than the original) are compatible for the Feroza F300 year 1990?
Thanks a lot!
