What Are the Reasons for Difficult Gear Shifting in Manual Transmissions?
1 Answers
Reasons for difficult gear shifting in manual transmissions: 1. Incomplete clutch disengagement; 2. Weak clutch pressure plate spring; 3. Worn internal synchronizer in the transmission; 4. Sticky or obstructed shift shaft operation; 5. Excessive viscosity or poor lubrication of transmission oil. A manual transmission is a gear-shifting device used to alter the speed and torque transmitted from the engine to the drive wheels. During the gear-shifting process, the transmission must equalize the circumferential speeds of the pair of gear teeth about to engage in the selected gear to ensure smooth engagement and successful gear shifting. Forcing gear engagement when the gear teeth are not synchronized will create speed differences between them, resulting in impact and noise.
