right i know its for the 106 but i just need some generic advice. So think of it as if its a 1.6 16v gsi.
right, got my clutch kit ready. What else do i need.
Gearbox oil: Whats the best stuff to use?
Seals: ive heard its best to replace the seals so wheres the best place to get them ( apart from dealership ripp off )
Cheers

ive got the hayes and the clutch alignment tool ready.
I was told that total BV gearbox oil is supposed to be the best.

go to your peugoet dealer and get the correct oil, you may not even loose any
make sure you have a clutch aliner tool (easier the useing your eye!)
why replace the seals?

just the copper washer( i got it from the dealership in the end ), im gonna drain the oil anyway as i like to do it often with the 106 ( due to the gearbox being made of chocolate).

30k now, the previous owner killed it abit. Ive got a scratching noise coming from the engine bay, it stops when i depress the clutch. Im narrowing it down to the clutch.

input bearing that would be, not clutch
if the noise started when you put your foot ON the clutch then it would be release bearing, or if it stops when you put foot on the clutch its the gearbox bearings (input shaft)

its it STOPS when you depress the clutch - input shaft bearing
if it STARTS when you depress the clutch - release bearing
so i dont think replaceing the clutch kit will fix it

good no's, complete gearbox strip to replace all the bearings
best bet - either check and correct g/box level and live with it (depending on how bad)
or find a second hand box
But get someone to comfirm this first 100%
