[QUOTE="PGF2609, post: 5921, member: 700"] Hi Sifu's Yesterday I was driving and suddenly my Gearbox snapped. Cannot go into any Gear, clutch paddle very light, seems like no connection to gearbox. After that towed the car to a BMW specialist they said that the gearbox damage bearing rosak and clutch plate makan and now might have effected the cranshaft.... So the specialist recomends to repair the gearbox and to ensure that it wont happen again the engine needs to be taken out and dismantled to make adjustments to the crankshaft. They say If I dont fix this and fix the gearbox only, it is possible it will spoil my engine later on. My Question is, 1. Can a Gearbox damage cause any imbalance or damage directly to Cranshaft, because as I know Crankshaft is made from forged steel so should be very strong? 2. If I just ask them to fix gearbox only will it effect my engine after sometime? Would appreciate feedback and advice from all you sifus here. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
