205Rallee 59 Posted October 17, 2006 205 Rallye with MA box and it won't engage 5th gear. All the other gears work, it's just like 5th gear has disappeared. Any ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandy 191 Posted October 17, 2006 Damaged selector or synchro most likely, or something outside the box or under the car touching the linkages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miles 331 1 Cars Posted October 18, 2006 I'd go along with that too, Might be worth trying to enguage the gears manually onthe box itself to imilinate the linkages Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peugeot's parts computer show the bolt but it doesn't have a parts number. There is a similar one on the BE1 box which has a part number so let's hope that fits! Otherwise it's a trip to the scrappy!
