I'm not too familiar with the V2 Gearboix, having worked almost completely on my V1N, but could it be possible that the external selector is having meshing troubles with the actuator or selector plate? That may explain the misfiring, but not the motor misfunction. For that, maybe misaligned motor height would be my guess. Did you touch the motor adjustment screw or the motor group at all?
