if there is no noise at all and you havent heard any gears crunching lately then I'd say the box isn't the issue, its like mertin says its not going into gear and therefor are still in neutral

Well... aprox 2 months back, I accelerated hard into 2nd + heard an almighty "cruch" this may of been the end of 2nd gear...
Didnt place this part in the 1st post i made sorry
So with this would you say its 2nd has gone into 100 pieces inside the box / stripping all the teeth off 2nd + therefore redering the box useless or without 2nd completley?

it would be the central pivot joint thats worn to much, usually comes down to racing from 1st to 2nd and slamming it into gear,

put the f15 in joe and change the linkage, gearbox should take about 5 hours if you no abit, but take your time because its a pain taking it all out just cause you havnt put the bearing in or something

Only thing is, other then
Wheels off/ anti roll bar off/ drive shaft out... (Passenger side)
As for gearbox mounts+ everything else, i havnt got the foggiest
I step by step guide from somebody on here / 1 thats already been compiled would be best...
I have a haynes at home + covers the 1.4 1.6 16v models so im abit stuck

just take a good look at it, and take a good look at the f15 box, you will see where all the bolts are to take off,
the hardest thing to do is to line the spline back into the clutch, but it doesnt matter how good you are at changing them you will always have a struggle with it, its just a case of wriggling it on in a way
