hi mate forgot to mention i had a citreon zs with the 1.9 pug engine/gear box,,bought it with 36k on clock & got rid with over 200k on clock & that had a whine in 2nd & 3rd all those miles of owning it never got any worse & the T4 1.9TD we have as a slight 2nd & 3rd whine but it doesnt leak/jump out of gear or crunch so sometimes its one of those things you"ve to live with Ive just used one of those small tubes of moly slip & it seemed to make the gears select abit betterT:
from what ive used in the past i would recommend slick50 treatment but it seems expensive for the amount you getT::)

thanks for the replies

the guy on ebay sent me two seperate packages of molyslip :) so i'm gona run the new oil for 10,000 miles then change again. with the state of the old oil, doubt it had been changed.

a little tip i picked up from a van expert, is to overfill the box a little:) in my manual it states the oil should be 10mm below the fill level 2.5 ltrs. i have put in 3ltrs and its on the fill line, runs fine.

as the gearbox is splash fed, its supposed to help!
