Clutch and steering are two mechanical systems that the motorist controls. One, however, tends to wear out faster than the other: it is the clutch naturally. Of course with the gearbox, in close connection. Rather frequently, gearshift malfunctions occur on the + str (XXX) +. And even if the clutch is often the cause, it sometimes happens that we are surprised at the source of the malfunctions. Also, this prevents from time to time changing the entire kit. So here are the gearshift malfunctions the most common.
+ str (XXX) +: Impossible to pass one of the speeds
It happens from time to time that one of the gears does not pass any more. Or only even or odd speeds. In this situation, the clutch is damaged. However, this is not inevitably linked to the entire clutch kit or gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. It is possible that the malfunction comes from a link or a rubber that holds it. The malfunction can also come from the gearbox. It can be disassembled to verify that no foreign component is blocking it. If it is damaged, you must replace it.
Unable to change gear once the + str (XXX) + engine is started
It is unfortunately a fairly recurrent dysfunction. Since the engine block is off it is possible to shift your gears, this implies that the gearbox of the + str (XXX) + is in good condition. Once the engine block is on, it is impossible. The malfunction comes from the clutch. Generally it will be essential to replace the entire clutch kit. You can try to remove it and look at the status of all components. 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 off as on, it's really annoying. The first thing to look at is the state of the gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. There is a good chance that it will be out of service. To discern where the dysfunction came from it's quite simple. If you can push the lever into the guide of a speed, but the speed does not take, it is the clutch which probably presents a malfunction. If the lever seems to be stuck and you cannot push it, the malfunction probably comes from the gearbox. For both, you most certainly need to replace one or more parts.
