Clutch and steering are the two mechanical systems that the motorist controls. One, however, wont wear out faster than the other: it is the clutch device of course. Obviously with the gearbox, which goes with it. It happens relatively regularly that gearshift malfunctions occur on this + str (XXX) +. And even if the clutch is regularly involved, it sometimes happens that we are surprised at the source of the malfunctions. In addition, it sometimes avoids changing the complete kit. So here are the gearshift malfunctions the most usual.
+ 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 just even or odd speeds. In this situation, the clutch is worn. However, it is not necessarily related to the whole clutch kit or gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. It happens that the concern comes from a link or from a rubber which holds it. The problem can also come from the gearbox. It can be dismantled to check that no external component is blocking it. If it is damaged, you must change it.
Unable to change gear once the + str (XXX) + engine is started
Unfortunately, this is a fairly common concern. Since the engine 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 is running, it is impossible. The concern comes from the clutch. In general it will be advisable to replace the complete clutch kit. You can try to remove it and check the condition of all components. As a reminder, it is advisable to replace the clutch every 150 km.
+ str (XXX) +: no speed passes
If none of the gears pass, the engine stopped or in working order, it's really annoying. The first thing to check 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 concern comes from, it's relatively easy. If you can push the lever in the guide of one of the speeds, but the speed does not take, it is the clutch which certainly presents a problem. If the lever seems to be stuck and you cannot push it, the problem certainly comes from the gearbox. For both, you most certainly need to replace one or more parts.
