What are the causes of the shifting mechanism failure in the Viano?
1 Answers
The causes of the shifting mechanism failure in the Viano are as follows: Clutch-related issues: Clutch malfunction can lead to insufficient clutch disengagement travel, resulting in incomplete clutch separation and difficulty in shifting gears. In such cases, it is recommended to visit a repair shop to adjust the disengagement travel. If the self-locking force of the clutch gear is too high, making it difficult to engage or disengage gears, it is advisable to have the clutch and cable adjusted at a repair shop. If the transmission plate assembly of the clutch is deformed due to certain reasons, causing poor separation, it is recommended to replace it with a high-quality pressure plate that matches the original vehicle. Transmission-related issues: The transmission fluid needs to be replaced. To some extent, the gear oil in the transmission requires regular replacement. If not replaced in time, its lubrication effectiveness will significantly decrease, leading to a substantial increase in shifting resistance and resulting in rough gear changes. Cold weather shifting can also make the gears feel stiff, as the viscosity of the gear oil in the transmission does not reach its optimal state in low temperatures, naturally reducing lubrication effectiveness and causing a jerky sensation when shifting.
