Why is it always difficult to engage first gear in Haval H6 manual transmission?
2 Answers
Haval H6 manual transmission frequently fails to engage first gear due to reasons such as high gear ratio and difficult gear shifting. Here are detailed explanations: 1. Gear Ratio: The six-speed manual transmission equipped on Haval H6 is produced by a company in Hebei Province. This manual transmission model is CM52, which can be researched online as it has been on the market for quite a long time. The gear ratio between 1st and 2nd gear is approximately 1.9, while the normal gear ratio should be around 1.5, resulting in difficult gear engagement. 2. Difficult Gear Shifting: Regarding the phenomenon of difficult gear shifting, the most frequently reported case should be Chevrolet Cruze. Currently, when Cruze shifts from first to second gear or engages reverse gear, the gear shifting process is particularly challenging.
I've encountered this issue too! I've been driving a manual transmission old car for seven or eight years, and when the Haval H6 manual transmission can't engage first gear, it's mostly because the clutch isn't fully depressed. Many people are used to pressing the clutch halfway and rushing to shift gears, but actually, you need to press it all the way down, wait half a second, and then push the gear lever. If it still gets stuck, try shifting after turning off the engine. If it goes in smoothly, it's likely that the clutch disc is worn thin or the release bearing is broken. Last time, I replaced the clutch three-piece set at the 4S shop, and that solved the problem. Here's a little-known fact: when it's cold, the transmission oil thickens, so idling the car for three to five minutes before shifting will make it smoother.
