What are the reasons why the Geely Emgrand cannot shift gears?
2 Answers
It may be due to the failure of the positioning parts of the gear lever's positioning ball head, or the clutch not being able to fully disengage. Below is relevant information: 1. Geely Emgrand: The Geely Emgrand (referred to as Emgrand) is a sub-brand constructed under the parent brand of Geely. The new Geely Emgrand was launched on July 26, 2014, equipped with a 1.3T GeTec DVVT turbocharged engine, featuring front-wheel drive, a maximum power of 98kw, turbo engagement at 1800 rpm, and a peak torque output of 185NM at 2000 rpm. 2. Related configurations: In terms of interior, the EC7-RV adopts a unique red and black dual-color interior, with more eye-catching orange-red decorations on the seats and both sides of the doors, making it appear more dynamic. In terms of power, the 2013 Geely Emgrand EC7 still comes with 1.5L and 1.8L engines. The 1.5L model is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, while the 1.8L model is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and a CVT continuously variable transmission.
I've been driving this Emgrand for a year or two, and recently encountered trouble with gear engagement. It's probably due to worn clutch pressure plates – the pedal feels soft and spongy, or maybe there's insufficient pressure from hydraulic system leaks. Sometimes, loose gear linkage can also cause jamming. I'd advise against forcing it into gear to avoid damaging the transmission. I used to neglect checking these during maintenance, and now the consequences are serious. Best to park and check the clutch fluid level first. If there's no leak, head to the repair shop for pressure plate replacement. Prevention is simple: change clutch fluid regularly and avoid aggressive shifting. Always prioritize safety before DIY fixes – small issues can escalate if ignored.
