   does the knock sound any faster as the revs climb? does it go away when you push the clutch in?

   Do yourself a favour and buy a refurbished gearbox - dont buy second hand as it works out more expensive in the long run.

   Your friend maybe right but I've been through 3 vtr boxes in about year so Im just going to go with my past experience. Good luck getting it sorted though.

   as above, but do yourself a favour and ditch the 1.1 fly wheel,gearbox and clutch. buy a vtr flywheel and get a valeo or luk clutch kit. then you wont be chewing threw clutches and boxs

   Did you check these were all done at the right torque - especially the flywheel?
