Clutch and steering are two mechanical systems that the driver controls. One nevertheless tends to deteriorate faster than the other: it is of course the clutch system. With of course the gearbox, in close connection. Rather frequently, gearshift malfunctions occur on this + str (XXX) +. And even if the clutch is often involved, it happens that we are surprised at the source of the malfunctions. Also, this sometimes avoids having to change the complete kit. Here are the gearshift malfunctions the most regular.
+ str (XXX) +: Impossible to pass one of the speeds
It happens regularly that one of the speeds does not pass any more. Or only even or odd speeds. In this situation, the clutch is in bad condition. However, this is not inevitably linked to the whole clutch kit or gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. It happens that the concern comes from a rod or a rubber that holds it. The problem can also come from the gearbox. It can be removed in order to check that no foreign element is blocking it. If it is damaged, it will have to be replaced.
Unable to change gear once the + str (XXX) + engine is started
Unfortunately, this is a fairly recurring concern. Since the engine is off, it is still possible to change gears, this implies that the + str (XXX) + gearbox is operational. Once the engine is on, it is impossible. The concern comes from the clutch. Often it will be necessary to replace the complete clutch kit. You can still remove it and check the condition of all the components. For information, it is still advisable to replace the clutch every 150 km.
+ str (XXX) +: no speed passes
If none of the gears are working, with the engine stopped as if on, it's really annoying. The first thing to check is the condition of your + str (XXX) + gearbox. There is a high probability that the latter is out of service. In order to discern where the concern comes from, it is relatively simple. If you can push the lever into the guide of one of the speeds, but the speed does not pick up, the clutch is certainly the problem. If the lever seems stuck and you can't push it, the problem is certainly with the gearbox. In both cases, it will most likely be necessary to replace one or more parts.
