Oh and did he use genuine Honda bearings. Why didn't he replace all 7 thats in the pack. Did he replace the clutch as well whilst it was down at that stage. If he didn't use Honda bearings which ones did he use. Thanks.

Hi
Unfortunately i know how much the bearing pack costs but unless you stike it lucky with honda its not labour free. I presumed the original post guy was not labour free.

What made you realise certain bearings in the gearbox needed replacing?  I have only had one car where the gearbox gave trouble and that was an Alfa Romeo Spyder in the 70's.  In reverse, it made a clonk sound and stopped.
