Hard to Shift when engine is hot

**LetsRolla** · January 11th, 2011 06:17 AM

Hello guys,

I have a problem with my AE92, napansin ko mahirap ipasok sa 1st and sa reverse yung kambyo. I experience this only when the engine/tranny is hot. Kapag malamig naman, its a bit ok naman, even better when a bit warm. Its so hard to diagnose since its very intermittent. Its more evident when Im downshifting (2nd to 1st). Is it a transmission problem, a bent fork worn syncro, or clutch problem? Hope someone can help. Thanks!

Pa check mo muna fluid level ng transmission o baka kailangan ng palitan ng bago dahil marumi na . Para mas swabe shifting mo.

Oh sorry, I forgot to mention that, I already replaced the transmission fluids, the old one was like sludge already but no metal parts/shavings seen and already made adjustments to the clutch. Unfortunately, same thing happened.

Kung bagong palit na yung transmission oil, check mo yung clutch fluid. Old and dirty fluid will not perform as needed when hot.

Hi, thanks for replying. Thats the thing sir, I just replaced all liquids, tranny oil, clutch fluid, etc. hoping that it will go away...well, its still there. Im not as knowledgeable in the transmission department so thats why Im having a bit of a problem diagnosing and determining what exactly is wrong

Pag ganyan, ipababa mo na transmission para makita yung loob kung ano ang depekto at nasira. You may contact me at 09393346424 for further assistance.

sir ganyan din problem ko sa liteace dati

sabi ng ilang mekaniko at sa pitstop na ibaba daw ang transmission papalitan ng lining o plate ata yun dahil kapag mainit na daw namamaga sila kaya hirap ipasok ang 2nd to 1st at neutral to reverse

lahat sila yun ang sinabi

hindi ko na napagawa dahil binenta ko na agad

Outside of the transmission, usually the main culprit for hard shifting would be the pressure plate or clutch cover.
