Title gives it away my 2 crunches going into second gear irrelevant of speed of shift or revs

Could this be gear linkage, bushings etc or gear box? Im hoping its not the later anyone have any experience of this where should I start looking
By the way its a rev2 n/a

Cheers

Its almost certainly the syncros inside the box, a previous owner must have missed second gear one too many times and done harm. If all the gears were notchy id say maybe pressure plate or just the clutch needed bleeding, but with all the rest fine, its either the synco or the baulk ring which is worn.
U can put up with it, have it recondt for about 200euros or replace the box with a second hand unit.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!

Thanks for the info was hoping it isnt the box but hey thats the joys of buying a project 2

Hey tony,
Just out of interest-did this issue develop over time or all at once?

I have a very slight crunch into 3rd, but only on a downshift and only when cold. I try avoid it where possible.

I couldnt tell you to be honest its the way I got the car ive only had it about a month or two, havnt really been driving it much I got it as a kinda project
