Clutch and steering are two mechanical systems that the driver controls. One nevertheless tends to deteriorate faster than the other: it is the clutch system of course. In particular with the gearbox, in close connection. Rather frequently, gearshift problems occur on the + str (XXX) +. And even if the clutch is frequently involved, sometimes we are surprised at the source of the problems. In addition, it avoids at times to change the complete kit. These are the gear change issues the most regular.speed-pass-plus-Opel-Senator

+ str (XXX) +: Impossible to pass one of the speeds

It often happens that one of the gears no longer shifts. Or only even or odd speeds. In this case, the clutch is in poor condition. However, this is not necessarily due to the whole clutch kit or gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. The problem may come from a link or a rubber that holds it. The problem can also arise from the gearbox. It is possible to remove it in order to check that no external element is blocking it. If it is damaged, it must be replaced.

Unable to shift gear once the + str (XXX) + engine is running

Unfortunately, this is a fairly common problem. Since the engine block is off, it is possible to shift your gears, this implies that the gearbox of your + str (XXX) + is operational. Once the engine block has started, it is impossible. The problem stems from the clutch. Often it will be necessary to replace the complete clutch kit. You can still disassemble it and check the condition of all parts. For information, it is recommended to replace the clutch every 150 km.

+ str (XXX) +: no speed passes

If none of the gears pass, the engine stopped as lit, it's really unpleasant. The first thing to check is the condition of the gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. There is a good chance that the latter is HS. In order to understand where the problem comes from it's relatively easy. If you can push the lever in the guide of a speed, but the speed does not engage, it is the clutch which undoubtedly holds a problem. If the lever seems to be stuck and you can't push it, the problem is most likely the gearbox. For both, it is very likely to replace one or more parts.
