SMG issues: hesitation/stutter, missing gears, UPDATE: adaptation issues

[big,JON]

OP I have an actuator I'll let go for cheap. It's a used unit but worked perfectly on the car before I pulled it.

One smg lover to another

Oh thanks! I'll send you a PM.

How many miles on the clutch? Or did you replace the clutch?

As far as I know factory clutch, unchanged, 150km

Again, the hydraulic pipes and others weren't opened that air got in, so why do you need to bleed the air out?
What knuckle?

I don't, I haven't said that I do? I simply said I ran adaptations from the beginning *once*. I don't see this being related to the issue of adaptation failing and the gear cannot be engaged code? (happy to be proven wrong though)

And yes, as BL92 mentioned the gearshift rod joint which is infamous for the 4th gear adaptation failure according to the internet.

Might be your clutch and throw out bearing etc. Could be any of those things.
