Hi all got a fairly simple one i think Gotfried the vanagon with now 23k on it has a sticky trans grear shifter or trans not sure. fluid in the trans is at correct level but when you drive it for a little while it gets sticky in neutral but falls into the gears just fine. ive lubed the gear shift ball and the linkage and the connector to the trans. but it is still tight when warm if you stop somplace for a quick burger and jump back in then the gear shift is free from side to side (Manual trans by the way) with no resistance but when warm tightens up again. any suggestions?? i just drove from ann arbor MI to Columbus Ohio for the vw show that went on today and got home a few hours ago. 84 vanagon was flawless in performance and all just a bit tight on the shifting when warm. c-ya thanks Jonce Jonce Fancher 57 Single Cab 66 Sunroof Bug 66 Variant Squareback 71 Sunroof Bus 75 911S Sunroof 84 Vanagon "Godfried" 85 Vanagon Westi 2003 10 Passenger Sprinter Fancher's Upholstery Inc. - www.fanchers.com Not-A-VW Club- http://mywebpages.comcast.net/jaransont3/notavwclub/
