What Causes a Manual Transmission Car to Fail to Engage Gear After Starting?
1 Answers
Manual transmission car failing to engage gear after starting may be due to internal transmission failure or clutch malfunction. The gear shift mechanism connected to the transmission, if faulty, can also prevent gear engagement. The exact cause requires inspection by professional technicians at a 4S shop. Methods to prevent gear engagement failure include: 1. Shift gears gradually from 1st to 4th gear during normal driving, avoiding skipping gears. 2. Replace transmission lubricating oil at appropriate intervals and avoid prolonged neglect. 3. Regularly or periodically inspect car components such as the clutch and transmission. 4. Address minor gear shift issues promptly with inspection and repair, as neglecting small problems can lead to major issues over time.
