Hope this is the right place for this - Is there already a thread on issues of Vitara gearboxes? After my clutch cable snapped it's pretty difficult to get 2nd or 4th, and all the gears are pretty loose. Any threads outlining what this could be?

No but as soon as it gave way that was the first thing i checked, I remember seeing that a while ago... I've replaced the cable and it's all good but I'm guessing a pin or seal or locating thingy has let go, just hoping someone knows a common fault.

Pretty sure NT/WT/Coily bodies are all interchangable... Could be wrong, but pretty sure...

me too, who ever thought you'd be building a Vitara up... aka shep's mobile hair salon.
NFI about the spring spacing on the LN 106 lux, might pay to post up on outers.
