It wasn’t due to lack of maintenance I’ve owned over 6 years and changed the gearbox oil 6 times, the gearbox specialist put it down to short journeys constantly changing gear.

But they also said the filter was full which can’t be changed unless it’s split apart was full which didn’t help anything as the bits need to go somewhere and contaminate the rest of the box.

It was when they took it apart and rebuilt it.
