For all renault duster users having gear shifting problems from 1st gear to 2nd gear, ask the authorized service center to change your synchronization rings. That solves the problem. I faced the same problem - after almost a year of the car going to the service center almost every month with the same issue and numerous attempts by the ASC guys to resolve this, changing these rings finally resolved the issue. Thankfully, i had the foresight to take extended warranty so it did not cost me anything, but without this, change of these rings can set you back by a good 15 to 20k. Happy motoring!

Bharat - I am having the same issue and along with this issue there is also slight shuddering of engine when releasing clutch in 1st gear. This also starts after 30 mins of drive in bumper to bumper traffic. Did you face this issue as well and if yes - was it resolved after changing the synch rings?
I am also facing the same issue. Some times not able to sift gear. @Renault please provide solution on this issue

Madhav Limaye. From Pune.
Same problem with me. Gears stuck, hard to shift gears. Noisy. Sounds coming while shifting gears.
Changed 1st and 2nd gear hub, clutch kit with release bearing, slave cylinder or hydraulic receiver they call it.
Clutch bleeding done.
Gear shift handle was jumping while vehicle starts.
Lots of problems even after frequent repairs.
Still problem persists.
I have some doubts regarding their troubleshooting methods.
After mount loosening and again tighten, gear handle jumping problem solved.
But still force has to be applied while gear putting in 1st when we start the vehicle.
Then from 1st to 2nd gear shifting again hardness is observed. Unpleasant ride experience.
Gear box working is not smooth.
My phone number. [protected]
I have doubts over mounts of vehicle
Like gear box mount, transmission Mount etc.
Kindly solve this issue.

Hi, I have duster 2013 model. Right from day 1, I am getting gear becoming tight intermittently. It doesn't happen always. But when it happens it's very bad and hard to change the gear. I have tried getting it serviced multiple times at Renault silk board, Bangalore. But nothing really helped. In the last service a week ago they are telling clutch needs to be replaced and it costs close to 40k. I don't believe it will solve the problem unless it had manufacturing defect as from day 1 I am facing this problem. Car has run 50k now. You can check my service record from day 1 and I have complainedaboutitin every service. I am overall happy with the car except this problem which is very annoying and can be dangerous too. Can customer service please respond how it was solved for other customers so that I can get sane thing done. If this problem is solved, I am planning to keep this car a few more years. My number is [protected].
I am facing this issue from 2019 after bodyshop work in my duster 85 rxl plus. To this day I am being fooled by service executive that it is a clutch issue. The car creates problem in 1st to 2nd gear. The gear knob was broken in 2019 on delivery which was changed. I feel my car even though out of warranty has been deliberately screwed at your service center. I do visit often and pay a good amount, no need to break my car and trust for money. WB02AF7632
