What Are the Hazards of Gear Grinding in Cars?
1 Answers
Hazards of car gear grinding: 1. The edges of the gears are worn down into rounded corners, reducing the engagement degree when shifting gears, leading to incomplete engagement; 2. Slight vibrations may cause gear disengagement; 3. In severe cases, it may become impossible to shift gears or engage gears, thereby affecting the car's normal operation and necessitating a major transmission overhaul. Gear grinding occurs in manual transmission models, and the condition is mainly due to incomplete clutch disengagement. The primary reason for incomplete clutch disengagement is the driver's operating habits. Normally, ensuring the clutch is fully depressed when shifting gears can mostly prevent gear grinding.
