f20 gearbox's sumtimes have a tendancy to chuck it into 2 gears at the same time which u need to get unjammed. also the gear lingake is a problem because they have to be modified, if u bodge it it will be either half calibra/astra and half corsa and they are welded together, this can cause the bushes to f**k up quicker. I had this done on my car just the other week. u can buy a new linkage for lmf vauxhall for £62 + vat and also u can buy nylon bushes for a tenner!!!mine used to go into 4th everytime i went into second.

How are you setting the linkage up? By guess work or by locking it properly?
