Hi Colin, What happened to your Lotus? The problem with your vehicle could be broken or damaged engine mountings or adjustments of the linkages if the problem is failure to engage, but if you are engaging the gears and then the gears pop out, the problem is inside the gearbox with the syncromesh cones and clutches. Lotus is better than Citroen anyway! Regards John

SOURCE: transmission won't shift to 2nd and 3rd gears goes from 1st to 4th.

Doesn't sound like a simple fix. I would suggest having it serviced.

SOURCE: I only have 3rd and 4th gear, 1st 2nd and 5th are

Purchase a gear shift repair kit for your car. They are pretty cheap. About 20 bucs. The ball and bushings are probably worn.

SOURCE: my ford focus tdi 2003 cant select 1st,3rd or 5th gears.

Car is in limp in mode unless you have the tools to work on automatic transmission you will need to take it to a transmission shop. Of course you can check oil level but I suspect you have other issues.

I have a citroen c3 diesel. it will let me select 1st and 2nd gear, but it won't let me select 3rd 4th and reverse

linkage problem and without a look myself i couldnt tell you but it sounds like a link bar at the back has come loose ,might get away with pushing it back on and putting some tape around it till you can get a new piece .

57 plate sorento seems to have a gearbox or axle fault. In 2nd 3rd and 4th it feels like there is a tooth missing it feels like going over a drain in the wet gets worse when towing any ideas.

Does it change frequency when in different gears?
If you're going the same speed, does it happen at the same timing regardless of what gear you are in?
Does it happen with every revolution of the tires, or at some other rate? Every revolution of the tires would point to a CV joint or the differential.

My citroen 2.8 relay is hard t get into some gears, 1st and 3rd are ok, 5 crunches but 2nd and 4th are hard too get, its asthough something has seized up. any ideas?

Hi. Just a long shot.
Might be an idea to take off the gearbox end cover
and check the mainshaft end nut hasn't worked itself loose.
I've seen this happen a few times.

Hi guys, have citroen relay '08' plate 2.2 hdi. is the clutch hydrolic or cable? also struggling to get reverse gear, all others no problem at all. any ideas?

It is hydraulic. Are you engaging 2nd gear prior to reverse to slow gear motion and ease reverse effort? Is the engine idle speed with specs?
