After a recent 1000 mile round trip to the Lake District I am having an increasing amount of difficulty changing gear. Second gear has become noticeably noisy , sounds a bit like a bearing to me , and third can be problematic to engage but not consistently so. The other strange thing is that going home last night when I came up to a stop at a T junction it almost felt for a second as if the clutch had not disengaged and the vehicle was still trying to pull forward. The clutch is only about 40,000 miles old but I cannot find whether the fork was replaced or not. I drained the oil this morning and found quite a bit of swarf on the magnet but generally it was in reasonable condition only having been changed about 18,000 miles ago. What is really odd is that the problem is not consistent , most of the time with the exception of the slight whine in second it drives perfectly.
Any thoughts ?
