Peugeot Boxer compass 100 - Gearbox identification (1 Viewer)

[grecian999]

Hi all

I really need help please.
My 2003 Peugeot boxer Avantgarde compass 100 2.0D 5 speed manual will not go into 1st gear

I need to source a new gear box , were would I find the identification number please so I can buy the correct gear box ?

Is it a case of just getting under the vehicle with a torch ? I’m not mechanically minded at all.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

I think you should check the gear cables they might need adjusting or renewing it might not be the gearbox.

Doesn't the VIN identify the vehicle? You have that on your V5 don't you?

Yes I have the V5 and VIN identification but couldn’t see any info regarding the gearbox.

Good point about the cables ,I assumed the worse.

Ask around for a recommended garage or post your location on here for garages in your area, you’ll need someone to look at it if your not mechanical…

Get the change cables checked out/adjusted first and have the gearbox oil changed and add some of this to it, it transformed the first gear "crunch" on my van.

Yes we had the same van and it was always like that especially if it had been standing, we used to get underneath and spray the cables with wd40 and keep moving the gearlever until it freed off then put some grease on them and they would be ok for a while but they would go stiff again eventually.

I know I'm a bit late for a reply.
However, a tin of WD40 and some lube is all you need.
Get someone in the cab to wiggle the gear lever and go through the gears.
Get yourself under the van from the drivers side (saves you removing the air filter housing) and spray generously the linkage/mechanism on top of the gearbox.
Then lubricate.
