I have a motorhome based on a Peugeot Boxer van and find it difficult
to shift into first and second gear.   I have just had the clutch
replaced and the pedal set level with the brake.   I have also used
fully synthetic in the box because this worked wonders for my previous
vehicle a VW.   Anyone experienced this please or has any ideas?

I believe this is a pretty normal situation in some Boxers
Theres a chap that advertises in the Motorcaravan mags, lives down in
Devon I think that has a fix for this.

Don't generally take the mags.  Anyone know what form of fix and more
detailed contact info?

No sorry. Its a Gearbox linkage  procedure that takes about half a day
or so. Im pushing myself here as it was about 5 or 6 years ago that I
remember this as there were quite a few people at the time who had the
same problem. You could try buying the main Motorcaravan mag and take
a peek, failing that give them a ring and ask or email them.
Possible a Google search?
