Synchro Arming Spring - Renault Clio 2 RS

The danger of a worn arming spring in your JC5 gearbox

Ignoring the replacement of a synchro arming snap ring when opening your gearbox is a major risk. Over time and through high-performance gear shifts, this synchro spring loses its tension or eventually snaps. Without optimal retention of the synchro keys, you risk gears popping out, imprecise locking, or even internal destruction of your gear set. Not replacing this part costing only a few euros means risking another expensive engine/gearbox removal and prolonged downtime for your Clio RS.
