re GEAR LEVER RATTLES.
Bentley Chassis.
----------------------

We have, on several occasions, drawn your attention to the number of complaints which have been received of gear lever rattles on Bentley chassis, but we have as yet, no cure and the most we can do is to adjust the trigger rod to prevent this from rattling.

We attach hereto a copy of H7/MC.2.2.35., and we shall be glad to know what action you suggest we should take.
