61 Plate Kangoo

Post by dave »

I have a 61 Plate Kangoo with an in gear whine / noise

All gears / all speeds

Noise stops when the the clutch is pressed to the floor

Any hints tips as what the cause is ?

I'm assuming gear box or clutch & its unlikley to be drive shaft or something inexpensive...

It's done 150k, both rear 1/4's are damaged, theres a BFO crack across the screen & the MOT runs out in end of June,

Before it goes, how does the body coloured solid "grill" between bonnet & bumper come off ?

Change the gearbox oil, it may be low?

You would be surprised how long a gearbox will last with a whine - maybe another 100k

unclip the top by hand,

unclip onside of the bottom with a flat screw driver & prises off,

takes about a min to remove & refit.
