The clutch and steering are the two mechanical devices that the driver controls. One, however, is used to wear out faster than the other: it is the clutch mechanism of course. Obviously with the gearbox, which is closely linked. It happens quite frequently that gearshift concerns arise on the + str (XXX) +. And even if the clutch is frequently involved, it happens that we have surprises about the reason for the concerns. In addition, this occasionally avoids replacing the complete kit. So here are the gearshift concerns the most regular.
+ str (XXX) +: Impossible to pass one of the speeds
It sometimes happens that one of the gears no longer changes. Or just even or odd speeds. In this situation, the clutch is damaged. However, this is not necessarily due to the entire clutch kit or gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. The malfunction may come from a link or a rubber that holds it. The malfunction can also come from the gearbox. It can be dismantled to verify that no external element is blocking it. If it is damaged, it must be changed.
Unable to change gear once the + str (XXX) + engine is started
Unfortunately, this is a rather recurring dysfunction. Since the engine is off, it is still possible to shift your gears, this means that the gearbox of the + str (XXX) + is in good condition. Once the engine is started, it is impossible. The malfunction comes from the clutch. Usually it will be advisable to replace the complete clutch kit. You can always remove it and look at the status of all the components. As a reminder, it is still advisable to replace the clutch every 150 km.
+ str (XXX) +: no speed passes
If none of the gears work, the engine stopped or in working order, it's really annoying. The first thing to look at is the wear and tear on the gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. There is a good chance that the latter is HS. In order to discern where the malfunction comes from it's quite simple. If you can push the lever in the guide of a speed, but the speed does not engage, it is the clutch which undoubtedly presents a malfunction. If the lever seems to be blocked and you cannot push it, the malfunction certainly comes from the gearbox. In both cases, one or more parts will most likely need to be replaced.
