Clutch and steering are the two mechanical systems that the driver controls. One nevertheless tends to wear out faster than the other: it is the clutch system of course. Obviously with the gearbox, in close connection. It happens quite frequently that gearshift concerns arise on the + str (XXX) +. And even if the clutch is often the cause, it sometimes happens that we are surprised at the reason for the concerns. Also, this at times avoids changing the complete kit. So here are the gearshift concerns The most common.
+ str (XXX) +: Impossible to pass one of the speeds
Sometimes one of the gears no longer shifts. Or just even or odd speeds. In this situation, the clutch is worn. But this is not necessarily related to the entire clutch kit or gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. It sometimes happens that the problem comes from a link or from a rubber that holds it. The problem can also come from the gearbox. You can disassemble it to check that no foreign component is blocking it. If the latter is damaged, it must be replaced.
Unable to change gear once the + str (XXX) + engine is started
Unfortunately, this is a rather recurring concern. Since the engine is off, it is still possible to shift your gears, this means that the gearbox of your + str (XXX) + is operational. Once the engine is running, it is impossible. The concern comes from the clutch. Often it will be advisable to change the complete clutch kit. You can try to remove it and look at the condition of all the parts. As a reminder, it is still recommended to change the clutch every 150 km.
+ str (XXX) +: no speed passes
If none of the gears pass, the engine off as on, it's really unpleasant. The first thing to look at is the state of the gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. There is a good chance that the latter is HS. To discern where the concern came from, it's pretty easy. If you can push the lever into the guide of a speed, but it does not take, the clutch is certainly a concern. If the lever seems blocked and you cannot push it, the problem probably comes from the gearbox. In both cases, it is most certainly necessary to change one or more parts.
