What to Do When the Gear Won't Come Out?
2 Answers
If the gear won't come out, you must go to a 4S shop or a professional auto repair shop to have professionals inspect and repair it. The reasons why the gear won't come out include: 1. At the rear of the transmission, there are two connecting rods. If the screw is loose or falls off, the gearshift lever inside the car can move, but the movement won't be transmitted to the transmission, so the gear won't come out; 2. The clutch pressure plate is damaged and cannot disengage, making it difficult to shift out of gear; 3. The gearshift cable is broken. If the gearshift cable is broken, the response of the gearshift lever cannot be transmitted to the transmission actuator. The transmission mainly refers to the car's transmission, including manual and automatic types. The manual transmission mainly consists of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque changes through different gear combinations, while the automatic transmission (AT) is composed of a torque converter, planetary gears, a hydraulic torque variation system, and a hydraulic control system, achieving speed and torque changes through hydraulic transmission and gear combinations.
I've encountered the issue of the gear not coming out several times. Each time, I first try to press the clutch pedal all the way down to see if the gear lever can move. If it can't be pressed down or there's resistance, it might be due to low clutch fluid or excessive pedal play. Adding some fluid or adjusting it usually helps. If that doesn't solve the problem, try turning off the engine and shifting gears again—sometimes it loosens up. If the gear is still stuck after turning off the engine, it's definitely an internal issue like synchronizer wear or transmission component damage, and you should head to the repair shop immediately. Avoid forcing it to prevent breaking the gear lever or damaging the transmission. When driving normally, ensure smooth clutch operation and avoid aggressive shifting to minimize such issues.
