How to solve the issue of Roewe RX5 not moving after shifting gears?
3 Answers
Whether in reverse gear or forward gear, it is difficult to move without stepping on the accelerator when on a steep slope, and there may also be a risk of rolling back. Simply stepping on the accelerator can resolve this issue. If the problem lies with the gear shifting mechanism, check whether the gear shifting mechanism is functioning properly. If it is not smooth or is loose, it may prevent the transmission gears from engaging.
I've been driving for decades and encountered the issue of the Roewe RX5 not moving after shifting gears a few times. For manual transmissions, the most common causes are worn clutch plates or improper adjustment, while for automatic transmissions, it could be insufficient transmission fluid or a faulty control module. Don't panic—first, check if the gear is fully engaged and gently press the accelerator to see if there's any response. If the car still doesn't move, inspect the transmission fluid level; dirty or insufficient fluid can hinder power transmission. Additionally, an electronic parking brake not fully released or faulty sensors can also prevent the car from moving. For safety, park on a flat surface and avoid forcing the car to drive; instead, call a professional technician for diagnosis. Regular maintenance, such as changing transmission fluid and inspecting the clutch system, can prevent such issues. After all, a non-moving car can easily lead to accidents, so timely handling is crucial.
As a young car owner, I've also encountered situations where the car doesn't move after shifting gears while driving the Roewe RX5. This is often related to electronic systems, such as software malfunctions in the Transmission Control Unit (TCU) or sensor failures. It's recommended to first try restarting the vehicle; sometimes a system reset can resolve the issue. If that doesn't work, use a mobile app or OBD diagnostic tool to read the fault codes, as Roewe models often have such problems. Avoid attempting repairs yourself; instead, take it to a 4S shop for inspection. They have professional equipment to quickly diagnose the issue. When driving normally, avoid sudden acceleration to protect the transmission's electronic components. Keeping the software updated is crucial, as it can extend the vehicle's lifespan and prevent future troubles.
