I thought the car was finally sorted but it's now developed a real crunch when changing up from 4th to 5th as if there was no synchro. The higher the revs the worse the grating ... it's booked back in again having only had it back from TMS since Friday. Anyone had anything similar or is this just proving to be a great purchase.

Bloody hell mate. I really feel for you. I haven't heard of a gearbox problem on a Tamora before...

Nope - not heard of this one - probably a rogue gear selector fork, or something - get a new 'box, preferably the close ratio one!!

Yup had this problem in my old tuscan.
Box would not change from 4th to 5th, just crunched.
Just get the dealer to change it.
