2nd gear grinding noise since gear oil change?

Recently I had my Peugeot 206 LX gear box mounts replaced and the gear oil was changed as part of the work. Things were fine for a week but then when changing up to 2nd gear when cold I get a grinding noise. After a few miles it stops and the gear changes are nice and smooth.





Any ideas? 2nd gear grinding noise since gear oil change?
recheck your gear box oil level sounds like it wasnt topped up properly2nd gear grinding noise since gear oil change?
It's the wrong oil; the spec for the old pugs was 70w/80. Your owners hand book should tell you the correct spec.
Does sound like too thick an oil was used. It frees off as the oil warms up and thins out.
They may have used the wrong oil. Check your manual to get the correct oil specs and compare to what they used. An oil too thick can cause this problem.
gaiter, or bearing, its be fine for a bit longer
try a clutch adjustment.
