Default GearBox Help!

Hi guys,

I have been noticing something unusual lately with my gearbox ...

When i move into second gear and step on the Gas pedal after a hump, i can hear a "thud" sound. It sounds as if theres a gap between and it took abit for the second gear to engage. Does that make sense?

This happens only when the car has been brought up to operating temp.

Cheers

Could be the transmission or engine mount.

Nope, Transmission mounts have not been changed. Is it a big job?
