Hi, I have a 1.2L nova with a factory fitted 5 speed but the gears are hard to selecct, if I recall is there a small pin you can renew on the linkage? Any advice will be a great help. thanks:thumb:

yes there is a pin where the linkage meets the selector box and are very common to wear . Get to you local dealer and but a replacement and dont panic if it looks different to the one you have removed because they have been superseeded and yes it fits too
