Why does shifting suddenly become stiff?

1 Answers

Stiff gear shifting in the transmission is mainly caused by insufficient lubrication or jamming of the gear shift mechanism, shift cable, or shift fork. It could also be due to incomplete clutch disengagement or issues with the transmission synchronizer. Reasons for stiff gear shifting: Transmission rust: Rust on the transmission input shaft prevents the clutch driven disc from moving normally, resulting in poor return and making it difficult to engage gears along the normal path. Clutch malfunction: Due to clutch issues, the clutch disengagement travel is insufficient, leading to incomplete clutch disengagement and difficulty in engaging gears. In such cases, it is recommended to go to a repair shop to adjust the disengagement travel. Excessive self-locking force: Excessive self-locking force on the clutch side makes it difficult to engage and disengage gears. In this situation, it is advisable to visit a repair shop to adjust the clutch cable and gear lock. Transmission plate deformation: The transmission plate of the clutch pressure plate assembly may deform for some reason, causing poor disengagement. In this case, it is necessary to replace the pressure plate with a high-quality one that matches the original vehicle.

What is the function of the car's A button?

Car's A button is the auto-hold function, which refers to an automatic braking feature that simplifies operation by avoiding the use of handbrake or electronic handbrake. The principle of auto-hold is that the car's ECU automatically measures wheel torque and vehicle level data to determine whether the vehicle has a tendency to roll. If there is a tendency to roll, the ECU will apply appropriate braking force to the wheels to keep the vehicle stationary. When starting, pressing the accelerator will automatically turn off the auto-hold, allowing the vehicle to move. The car's A button is a status button; when lit, it indicates that the auto-hold is activated, and when not lit, it means the auto-hold is turned off.

Is a Fuel Consumption of 17 L/100km Normal for a New Car?

New car fuel consumption of 17 L/100km is abnormal. Here are relevant precautions for new car usage: 1. Avoid overloading: Carrying excessive weight during the break-in period can damage mechanical components. As various power transmission parts haven't fully worn in yet, aggressive acceleration may cause irreversible damage. Therefore, new vehicles must adhere to the "slow and steady" principle during break-in. 2. Speed limits for new cars: Domestic vehicles generally 40 70 km/h, imported vehicles typically 100 km/h. When fully accelerating, speed should not exceed 80% of maximum velocity. The prescribed engine RPM during break-in is 2000 4000 rpm.
