What are the reasons for difficulty in shifting gears after starting the car?
1 Answers
Reasons for difficulty in shifting gears after starting the car: 1. The synchronizer is not working properly, excessively worn, or damaged; 2. The gear lever is deformed or loose; 3. The clutch is not fully disengaged, failing to completely cut off the power. When shifting gears, the clutch and throttle should be well coordinated. Press the clutch pedal all the way down, then immediately release the throttle pedal, and quickly shift to the corresponding gear. Gear shifting should be done according to the car's speed: start in first gear, shift to second gear after driving a few meters; shift to third gear when the speed reaches above 20 mph but below 35 mph; shift to fourth gear when the speed reaches above 35 mph but below 45 mph; and shift to fifth gear when the speed exceeds 45 mph.
