    What oil have you used? Check the "Good Oil" section for a lot of discussion about appropriate oils for the R380 gearbox.

    It's only done 178,000kms (would they wear in that distance) and I babied it since I brought in 2003. I haven't even had it off road it's sits in the garage gathering dust most of the time. I bearly do 5,000kms a year in it. Any other comments/ideas would be appreciated
    Thanks for the reply.
    Cheers

    Short answer is yes. Synchros can suffer a reduced life with bad driving habits. One example is driving with one hand resting on the stick constantly when not shifting. This can load up the synchros causing premature wear.

    Cheers
