That's odd. Makes me wonder whether my car still has its original
transmission. While putting it into reverse results in quite a noticeable
"clunk", all the other changes seem very smooth. Compared to my ex-Ford
Focus (2001 model), which had a homicidal gearchange, the Type 3 tranny
seems quite civilised.
