gear linkage on a renault clio 1.4...please help?

hi,driving on the motorway i ran over a breeze block,i was unable to avoid it,it caused damage to my front exhaust pipe and my gear linkage,RAC managed to get me home and they advised me to book car into a garage for repairs.The garage i went to charged me £200 to fit a new front exhaust pipe and new gear linkage,ever since this work was done i am unable to get car into 4th gear and its a real struggle to get into reverse gear and when i change gear something knocks...please advise...best regards....graham

I think you have the same problem as me if so be warrned when i got the car i had a similer problem i chose to ignor it and just live with it BIG mistake the problem was the gear linkage rubbing against the exhaust causing the knocking noise this happens mostly when putting the car into reverse and 4th long story short after about 2 months the gear linkage snapped completly leaving me stranded at the road side best bet would be to take it to the garrage you took it to last time and get them to take a look at it. good luck getting it fixxed
