Clutch and steering are the two mechanical systems that the motorist controls. One nevertheless has the habit of deteriorating faster than the other: it is the clutch system of course. Obviously with the gearbox, in close connection. It happens rather regularly that concerns of gear changes happen on the + str (XXX) +. And even if the clutch is frequently involved, it sometimes happens that we have surprises about the reason for the concerns. In addition, this sometimes avoids having to change the complete kit. These are the gearshift concerns the most usual.
+ str (XXX) +: Impossible to pass one of the speeds
Sometimes one of the gears no longer shifts. Or just even or odd speeds. As a result, the clutch is damaged. However, this is not necessarily related to the entire clutch kit or gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. It may be that the problem comes from a link or a rubber that holds it. The problem can still arise from the gearbox. It is possible to dismantle it to check that no external element is blocking it. If the latter is damaged, it must be changed.
Unable to shift gear once the + str (XXX) + engine is running
Unfortunately, this is a fairly recurring concern. Since the engine block is off, it is still possible to shift your gears, this implies that the gearbox of your + str (XXX) + is in good condition. Once the engine block is running, it is impossible. The concern comes from the clutch. Often it will be necessary to replace the complete clutch kit. You can try to remove it and check the condition of all the components. For information, it is still 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. One thing to check is the wear and tear on the gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. There is a high probability that the latter will be HS. To understand where the problem comes from it's quite easy. If you can put the lever in the guide of one of the speeds, but the speed does not engage, it is the clutch which certainly presents a problem. If the lever seems blocked and you cannot push it, the problem certainly comes from the gearbox. In both cases, you will most likely need to replace one or more parts.
