Found this comment on a US motor forum: Worst gearbox: Porsche 944. God that thing was awful. Putting the shifter into each gate was like trying to stir a pot of molasses in the January cold.. ![]() What do you reckon? Worn clutch or inability to operate a manual box? |

Perhaps it's yet another American shock and awe tactic/friendly fire type incident. Merry Christmas - War Is Over? Ben ![]() |

I'm guessing he ( she / it ) drove a car with a badly worn rear gear linkage. When I bought my car it had such a vague shift it was unreal, but thankfully I never let it put me off. Someone I let drive it before the fix said the gear change was like stirring porridge... I wonder if it was the same guy ![]() American's should stick to auto boxes to give them a free hand to hold their burgers. |
