How to solve the problem of Geely Emgrand not being able to shift gears after wading through water?
2 Answers
When the Geely Emgrand cannot shift gears after wading through water, turn off the engine and shift to 1st gear, then start the engine. The following is a related introduction to the Geely Emgrand: 1. Introduction: Geely Emgrand (referred to as Emgrand) is a sub-brand built under the parent brand of Geely. 2. Brand Introduction: The Emgrand brand inherits and breaks through the tradition of Geely Automobile. Its logo design is noble and reveals a strong international character. While shedding the historical baggage of Geely's original impression, it also effectively inherits the excellent inherent cultural genes. The stable and noble connotation of the logo will effectively help the Emgrand brand to develop a broad and stable new market.
I've encountered the issue of being unable to shift gears after driving through water several times in my Geely Emgrand. This is a common clutch slippage problem caused by water ingress. When water penetrates the clutch plates, you'll feel a spongy sensation when pressing the clutch pedal, and shifting gears becomes difficult. My advice is to immediately stop the engine - don't force it to keep running, or you might damage the transmission. Check if the clutch fluid reservoir appears cloudy or has air bubbles; if so, the fluid needs replacement. Personally, I've tried letting the car sit in a dry place for half a day - sometimes it improves after water evaporates, but this isn't reliable. Prevention methods: Reduce speed to minimum when crossing puddles, don't let water exceed wheel rim height, and try to detour during heavy rain. If the problem persists, visit a professional repair shop for complete system cleaning to prevent rust or long-term failures. Don't delay fixing this - stalling in the middle of the road can be extremely dangerous.
