Default Liquid noise from Gearstick ?!

All,

I am again an owner of a Gen1 and just getting to know her, picked up and driven 250 miles today without any issues. Just went out move the car and when I rev the engine with the gearbox in nutral I can hear a liquid slosh. sounds like its coming from below the gearstick?!

Anyone got any suggestions?!

Richard

Air con needs recharging is my guess that gurgles etc when low.

Gear oil level could be low but you'll be doing a thorough service etc anyway

Bubbles in the cooling system caught in the heater core?
