T5 Gearbox input shaft bearing....

Anyone have any experience of changeing one of these? Is it a difficult job? Anyone have any instructions? Had a quick search and can't find a lot of info. Also where do I get the replacement part?

thanking you in advance.

I've got a T5 service manual PDF. U2U me your email address and I'll send you a copy.

Out of interest how do you know you need to change the bearing? Mine has a little play in the input shaft but I'm hoping it's normal/OK.

It's normal for there to be a small amount of play with the box out, as the end of the input shaft is not located in the spigot bearing as it normally would be.

If it spins freely and smoothly it's probably fine....
