Oh, could've sworn that the gearbox was where you shift your car in and out of gear. My apologies everyone for being wrong.

We're just picking on you. Could be the gear box if our car is rear wheel drive. Which i would be happy to own one, specially if it's a standard.

Would be nice for others if you explained what your problem was and how you fixed it.
