Default FYI - Clicking 1st gear cause

You may or may not remember reading about my problem gearbox. Well its pulled apart now and the 1st gear and the input shaft are missing their hardending on parts of the teeth.

Apparently this is due to the input shaft bearing begining to fail.

And Audi love to charge on their spares.

WHAT A PITA.

Anyone else had this problem.
