Has anyone else’s gear stick gone like this? It’s a 70 plate and considering it’s automatic I am quite unhappy with how much damage has been caused. Is this easily removed and replaced? Worth going down the warranty route? because surly it shouldn’t go like this, only done 22k miles.

Hello all, The last couple of weeks I've been having troubles with my Seat Leon 1.9 TDi. It seems to have lost alot of it's pace at higher speeds. The acceleration will slow right down when I'm in 3rd gear and reach 50mph and continue even if I change gear to 4th/5th. I tried bypassing the...

Found this on an American VW site. http://vimeo.com/6881683 If you have problems getting into gear this will help you discount the linkages. Some of us have aftermarket GB linkages. When I fitted mine I didn't do any of this and still sometimes have an issue with getting into 2nd...
