[QUOTE="three 18, post: 10525, member: 2459"] Last couple of weeks, I had a problem with my gear box gear (E46 2.0), couldn't engage reverse gear e.g. when engage reverse, its like on neutral. No problem moving forward. But after driving a while forward, reverse gear is ok again. This went on of a few weeks. Until yesterday, reverse was gone for good. Took it to a few mech, most say its the gear switch (est. rm1500.00 per switch, consist of 2 switch, excluding workmanship).I narrow down to 1 mech which came highly recommended by a member here. Ah Fatt fr. PJ Old Town. Anyway, he recommended me to service the gear box. Change the clutch, ring and etc. which parts and labour is approx. rm6-7k. Before that, he ran a check using LAUNCH and no fault was detected on the so call switches. He suspect could be a pressure leak in the gear box. So he recommend me to service the gear box, if that fails. Then change the switches.So, just wanna check if any body here experience this before. And is the price quoted reasonable?Appreciate any reply. Thanks.Cheers.Three18. [/QUOTE]
